"The Birth of Baroque: The Carracci at the Metropolitan"
2000-07-07 until 2000-09-17
Metropolitan Museum of Art
New York, NY, USA

During the late 16th century, the Carracci brothers--Annibale and Agostino and their cousin Ludovico--set out to reform and revitalize Italian art. The bold new naturalism of their style--so different from the artifice and exaggerated elegance of Italian Mannerism-- established the foundations for what came to be called Baroque art.

This exhibition of the Metropolitan's important group of paintings, drawings, and prints by the Carracci features Ludovico's Lamentation (1528), recently purchased by the Museum and described by Metropolitan Director Philippe de Montebello as one of the most important acquisitions made by this institution in the last decade in the field of Old Master painting.
