LORENZO LOTTO. PORTRAITS Wednesday, June 20, 2018

Miguel Falomir, director of the Museo Nacional del Prado and curator of the exhibition, comments "Lorenzo Lotto. Portraits". Museo Nacional del Prado. 06/19/2018 - 09/30/2018

The Museo del Prado and the National Gallery in London are presenting the first major monographic exhibition on portraits by Lorenzo Lotto, one of the most unique and fascinating artists of the Italian Cinquecento. The intensity of these works and the variety and sophistication of the visual and intellectual resources that they deploy make Lotto the first modern portraitist.

Organised with the sole sponsorship of Fundación BBVA, this exhibition features 38 paintings, 10 drawings, a print and around 15 sculptures and objects similar to those depicted in the portraits, the latter offering a reflection of material culture of the time. The exhibition is on display in Rooms A and B of the Prado’s Jerónimos Building and is curated by Enrico Maria Dal Pozzolo of the University of Verona, and Miguel Falomir, director of the Museo del Prado.
