Luis Meléndez: Master of the Spanish Still Life

September 27, 2009—January 3, 2010

Luis Meléndez (1716–1780) was the greatest still life painter of eighteenth-century Spain and ranks as one of the greatest painters of the genre in all Europe. Overshadowed for centuries by the great Goya, Meléndez’ paintings have received attention by scholars and appreciation by collectors only in the last few decades. The exhibition includes more than twenty paintings, grouped with relevant works from abroad.
