Theatrum Artis Pictorae is a significant 18th-century publication by Anton Joseph von Prenner, an Austrian engraver and painter known for his work in documenting and reproducing art. Published in 1728, this multi-volume work is a collection of engravings that reproduce paintings from the Habsburg imperial collections, particularly those housed in the Belvedere Palace in Vienna. The Theatrum Artis Pictorae, which translates to "Theatre of the Art of Painting," was one of the first major attempts to systematically catalog and disseminate the visual contents of an art collection through the medium of print.

Von Prenner's work was pioneering in that it allowed a wider audience to access and appreciate artworks that were otherwise restricted to the aristocracy or those able to visit the collections in person. Each volume of Theatrum Artis Pictorae contains detailed engravings of the paintings, accompanied by scholarly commentary and descriptions, providing an early example of art historical documentation. The publication not only served as a visual record but also contributed to the burgeoning field of art history by offering insights into the provenance, attribution, and interpretation of the artworks.

The Theatrum Artis Pictorae is notable for its technical achievement in the art of engraving and for its role in the dissemination of art knowledge during the Enlightenment. It reflects the era's growing interest in cataloging and studying art as a means to understand cultural heritage and history. Von Prenner's work remains a valuable resource for art historians and provides a historical snapshot of one of the most prestigious art collections of the time.
