Reflect on ‘Zurbarán’ before this stunning exhibition closes.
Art history guide Martin Brown leads this interactive online session that takes a final look at 'Zurbarán'. Move between intimate still lifes and soaring altarpieces. Strong light and deep shadow reveal the details of faces, figures, fruits and fabrics. Martin visits the paintings of Francisco de Zurbarán and his son, Juan one last time.
At this reflection session, we invite you to share your experience of the exhibition, hear Martin’s insights, and reflect together.
