ESSENTIAL MUSEUMS IN SPAIN

STAR EXHIBIT The Adolescent Saviour , Giovanni A. Boltraffio Due to the multiple interests pursued by Leonardo da Vinci, the number of paintings bearing the signature of the Renaissance genius is very small. In fact, many of the “lost originals” common ly used to explain the creation of his works were drawings, not paintings. An example is this exquisite Lombard panel, made at the end of the Quattrocento by Boltraffio, Leonardo’s most gifted Mila nese disciple, based on an original de sign by the master and under his direct supervision. .
