1 work across 1 institution
Frankfurt's Städel Museum holds 1 work by Diego Velázquez (1599–1660) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Velázquez is the painter's painter — admired above all others by Manet, Sargent, and Francis Bacon — and seeing his work reveals why. His handling of paint is miraculous: up close, loose fluid passages of colour; at viewing distance, the most convincing figures in the history of painting.

Frankfurt's Museumsufer (Museum Embankment) lines the south bank of the River Main with a dozen museums within walking distance of each other — the Städel is the standout for fine art. A combined ticket is good value if visiting multiple Museumsufer institutions. The S-Bahn station Museumsufer is the closest stop.
