El Prado report




Amazing!

The whole catalogue of the exhibition Captive Beauty. Fra Angelico to Fortuny online on one page. Then by clicking on any one image we can go to another page with explanations about the painting and a larger image, such a great idea.

All the paintings belong to the museum but are not often on display.
El Prado Museum, from 21 May 21 till 10 November 2013. Madrid. Spain


Vicente Palmaroli y González, En vue, XIX century



Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, The duchess of Alba and her governess, 1795
This is one of the most puzzling, unsettling paintings I've ever seen, 

 John-Francis Rigaud, The three favourite air travellers, c 1785

(the travellers were Vicenzo Lunardi, George Biggin and Leticia Anne Sage)



- I think I should eventually go on posting images here -hmm, yes, definitely-
