René Magritte (1898-1967) was a Belgian surrealist artist who spent much of his life in Brussels, drawing inspiration from the city’s vibrant atmosphere. Known for blending everyday objects with unsettling twists, Magritte’s art invites viewers to see the world from a fresh perspective. Today, in the center of Brussels, the Musée Magritte Museum houses the largest collection of his works—over 230 pieces and archives that span his entire career.

Part of the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, this institution features a constantly evolving exhibition of paintings, gouaches, drawings, posters, and even films related to Magritte’s craft. Ongoing collaborations with Belgian and international museums, as well as private collectors, ensure that previously unseen treasures often grace its galleries. With eight nominations and awards to its name, plus 300,000 annual visitors, the museum remains a must-see for anyone eager to delve into Magritte’s surreal universe, including his whimsical “vache” period.
