Mantegna
Louvre, Hall Napoléon: from Sept. 26 2008 to Jan. 5 2009
For the first time in France, the Musée du Louvre presents an important retrospective exhibition of the work of Andrea Mantegna (1431-1506), the main representative of Renaissance ideas in northern Italy. The exhibition aims at showing, through his paintings, but also through drawings, engravings, manuscripts and sculptures, the career of this exceptional figure, the different influences which were important for him and, in turn, the powerful influence he had over several generations of artists.
The "mini-site" offers pictures, information, new books, bibliography, and more.
