Item Number: 124610 Title: Face to Face : Flanders, Florence, and Renaissance Painting Author: Nuttall, Paula ; Catherine Hess Price: Not Available ISBN: 9780873282581 Description: Los Angeles: University of California Press, 2013. 28cm., hardcover, 110pp. illus. Exhibition held at Huntington Art Collections, San Marino CA. From the museum's website: While many exhibitions have shed light on the beauty of Flemish 15th-century painting, and even more have celebrated the glory of Italian Renaissance art, “Face to Face: Flanders, Florence, and Renaissance Painting” will be the first in the United States to explore how Flemish artists helped make the innovative, sophisticated, and beautiful works of the Italian Renaissance possible. With more than 30 paintings and about 10 illuminated manuscripts by artists such as Jan van Eyck, Hans Memling, Pietro Perugino, and Domenico Ghirlandaio drawn from The Huntington’s collections and those of several other institutions in the United States and Europe, the exhibition will mark the first time viewers in the Los Angeles area will be able to see The Huntington’s acclaimed Madonna and Child (ca. 1460) by Flemish painter Rogier van der Weyden (ca. 1400–1464) displayed alongside its companion diptych panel, Portrait of Philippe de Cro˙, on loan from the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Belgium.
