Arte flamenco del siglo XVII

01 de Mar 2012 - 27 de May 2012

The exhibition aimed to show to the Mexican public the formal and thematic features that characterized Flemish painting, as well as highlighting the way in which these models impinged on the development of New Spain’s painting. Thanks to this dialogue established between two fields, the visitors were able to appreciate the distinctive traits of the Flemish School and abound in the itinerancy and consumption of models in different parts of the Hispanic Monarchy, showing the process of conformation of our viceregal art from a bundle of influences.
