Art and Love in Renaissance Italy
March 15-June 14, 2009
Among the most extraordinary works created by artists in Renaissance Italy
are those made to celebrate love and marriage. This exhibition will present
a group of exceptional objects that commemorate the most profound moments of
Renaissance life-betrothal, marriage, and the birth of a child-as well as
more informal bonds of love. Dating from 1400 to 1600 they will range from
the painted panels of great bridal chests, to marriage portraits and
paintings that extolled sensual love and fertility. Also included will be
outstanding ceramics, glassware, jewelry, prints and drawings.
