QUEENS GALLERY – CLASH OF THE OLD MASTERS, Wednesday 17 March, 2pm
Queens Gallery

Wednesday, 17th of March, 2 PM on Zoom.

Titian vs Paulus Potter

This week pits the lofty ideals of the Italian Renaissance against the realism of the Dutch Golden Age. Will the subtle allegory and loveable nature of Potter’s Dutch genre paintings triumph over the grand and ennobling paintings of Titian and Renaissance Italy?

Our speakers explore the contrasting but equally enchanting styles of these two Old Masters.
