Capitoline Museums in Rome host Beato Angelico exhibition

It’s the first great exhibition devoted to Beato Angelico: The Dawn of The Ranaissance since 1955 (two major exhibitions dedicated to this great Tuscan artist which took place in Florence and the Vatican in the 1950s).
This time visitors will have the rare opportunity to get a closer look at works now beautifully restored and that are on display at the Capitoline Museums in Rome for the first time.

The exhibition aims to shed a stronger light on the different aspects of this extraordinary artist who was drawer, painter and miniaturist; this art show charts his career from the early years – with a hint of Gothic style – to the long period he lived in Rome when his works were far more monumental.

Here a list of some of the works you will be able to see (the exhibition will run until 11 July): The Tebaid, Our Lady of The Cedars , the famous Cortona triptych, The Annunciation, Paradiso or Paradise and more.
And if you are an art buff, don’t miss out on two other important exhibitions; one dedicated to Giotto (Rome) and the other to Raffaello in Urbino, his hometown!
