If you walk west along Franziskanergasse, it's not long before you hit Max-Reinhard-Platz and the Rupertinum on the corner of Wiener-Philharmoniker-Gasse (mid-July to Sept daily 9am-5pm, Wed until 9pm; Oct to mid-July Tues-Sun 10am-5pm, Wed until 9pm; oS40/?2.91), a picture gallery devoted to twentieth-century work and major touring exhibitions of contemporary art. Gustav Klimt's Unterach am Attersee is probably the most famous canvas here, a marvellous example of Post-Impressionist landscape painting from an artist more usually known for his florid Jugendstil excesses. Elsewhere are a couple of Kokoschkas, and a picture each by Emil Nolde and Ludwig Kirchner, after which the collection drifts into mediocrity, enlivened only by Robert Zepperl-Sperl's Gastmahl , a colourful evocation of Vienna's bohemian artistic elite in the 1960s.
