When the Museo del Prado opened to the public on 19 November 1819, a special pass was required to visit the three rooms crammed with over 200 art works. Today, this extraordinary museum, which houses ten times more paintings than it did initially, can be visited from the comfort of your home thanks to this volume, full of masterpieces and details that highlight the often overlooked aspects of the works. Spanish painting features above all El Greco, Velázquez and Goya, as well as Flemish and Dutch painting by Van der Weyden, Hans Memling, Rubens and Van Dyck and the Italian art of Raphael, Titian, Tintoretto, Veronese, Tiepolo, Canaletto, Guardi. An index of names and biographies of the main artists conclude the volume.
