Travellers heading for 5 star hotels in Rome in the coming weeks could check out a stunning
exhibition of the work of Lucas Cranach.
The Renaissance artist was a court painter for the Electors of Saxony in the 16th
century and a selection of his finest pieces is currently on show at the Borghese
Gallery.
According to the organisers, the exhibition will be the first time much of
Cranach's work will have been seen in Italy, suggesting the show is likely to be
popular with residents as well as holidaymakers.
Among the artist's most famous pieces are a portrait of Martin Luther, a
woodcarving of Adam and Eve and a painting entitled The Ill-Matched Couple.
Tourists have until February 13th 2011 to head down to the venue to see this
fascinating show.
In order to reach the gallery, people can take the Metro Line A to Piazza di Spagna
and follow the signs to the arts space.
Admission costs €8.50 (£7.15) and concessions are available. Anyone keen to explore
the display further could consider signing up for an audioguide or guided tour in
English costing €5.
If visitors head to the gallery before February 7th, they could also check out an
installation entitled I Due Imperi, which costs €1 to enter.
For more information on this event, visit the Borghese Gallery website or contact
