Dance of Death from the Year 1809, a painting based on the 1809 war of liberation in Tyrol, was commissioned by the Modern Gallery, the predecessor institution of today\u2019s Belvedere. This patriotic subject matter had been stipulated by the Acquisitions Committee in preparation for the celebrations marking the sixty-year jubilee of Emperor Franz Joseph\u2019s coronation. But Egger-Lienz was still allowed artistic freedom. Instead of lauding the Tyrolean freedom fighters who, in loyalty to the emperor, rebelled against the Bavarian and Napoleonic troops, Egger-Lienz created a grim symbol of war: Four armed peasants are being led into battle by Death."},"title2":{"label":"Alternative Title","value":"Totentanz vom Jahre 1809"},"medium":{"label":"Medium","value":"Casein on canvas"},"onview":{"label":"On View","value":"0"},"title":{"label":"Title","value":"Dance of Death from the Year 1809"},"classification":{"label":"Genre","value":"Painting"},"primaryMedia":{"label":"PrimaryMedia","value":"/internal/media/dispatcher/59345/full"},"displayDate":{"label":"Date","value":"1908"},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"10195344"},"iiifManifest":{"value":"https://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/apis/iiif/presentation/v2/1-objects-6649/manifest"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"225 × 251 cm"}}]}
