Mexico City's Museo Nacional de Arte holds 1 work by Peter Paul Rubens (1577–1640) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Rubens painted on a grand scale — large altarpieces, mythological cycles — and his work assumes a physical relationship with the viewer. In person, the energy of his compositions is overwhelming: figures heave and turn, colours glow, the paint surface is fluid and alive.

Planning your visit to Mexico City
The Museo Nacional de Arte (MUNAL) and the Palacio de Bellas Artes are in the historic centro and easily walkable. The Museo Frida Kahlo ('Casa Azul') in Coyoacán requires a taxi or rideshare and sells out — book online in advance. Mexico City is at high altitude (2,240m); expect some fatigue if arriving from sea level.
