Prado Museum Tour: The History of Art

Overview of the tour in Madrid

The tour consists of explaining the main artistic periods (Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance) through the works of the most representative painters preserved in the Prado. In this way, we will choose 1 work of each of the 15 authors to study and the presentation of specific aspects, taking into account the characteristics of the painting, the historical history, the various interpretations ... we will put special interest in striking details and curiosities, encouraging participation to make the activity as enjoyable and fun as possible. It must be taken into account that this is not a typical visit and that it overlooks many of the most famous works of the Prado in favor of others that are more unknown or that tend to go unnoticed. Some of the authors in this first part are: Van der Weiden, Raphael, El Bosco, Tintoretto or El Greco. Small groups and recommended for all ages. Price: the activity is free, but DOES NOT INCLUDE ENTRANCE TO THE MUSEUM. Are you in?
