In the context of the celebration of its Bicentenary, the Museo del Prado is presenting Sofonisba Anguissola and Lavinia Fontana. A tale of two women painters, an exhibition which for the first time brings together the key works by two of the most notable women painters of the second half of the 16th century.

Featuring a total of 65 works, including 56 paintings, loaned from more than 20 European and American collections, the Museo del Prado is presenting a survey of the careers of these two painters, who achieved fame and renown among their contemporaries but whose artistic personalities became obscured over time.

Curated by Leticia Ruiz, Head of the Department of Spanish Painting up to 1500, the exhibition is on display in Room C of the Jerónimos Building until 2 February 2020.
