RENAISSANCE

Renaissance
National Gallery Of Australia
15th & 16th Century Italian Paintings from the
Accademia Carrara, Bergamo.


This unique exhibition offers audiences an unparalleled chance to see Early and High Renaissance paintings by some of the greatest European artists.

Raphael, Botticelli, Bellini and Titian are represented among an amazing gamut of talent and creative splendour.




More than 70 works on canvas and panel will be on display, made between 1400 and 1600 by painters in northern and central Ita
ly.
Of extraordinary quality, the paintings come from Venice, Florence, Padua, Ferrara, Bergamo and Siena.
Subjects range from touching depictions of the Madonna and Child, the lives of the Saints and moving renditions of the Crucifixion to insightful portraits of nobles.



The genius of Raphael and Titian is known to all, but lesser known painters such as Tura, Crivelli, Lotto, Carpaccio, Perugino and Moroni will also announce their prodigious talents.
