Overview of your Madrid tour:

Discover two of the most relevant Art collections in the world: within the Prado and the Reina Sofia museums. Both are located in Madrid Art district, which makes it possible for us to enjoy their most iconic masterpieces in the same day. The Prado has strong connections with our history and is a delight for the senses. As your guide with a Master's Degree in Fine Arts, I'll help you to navigate this immense collection, while telling you about its incredible artworks. We will explore the big names of Spanish school like Velázquez, El Greco, Ribera and Goya and also foreign artists like Titian, Rubens or Bosch that established strong ties with our country. The Contemporary Art Museum Reina Sofia proudly hosts one of the key works of 20's century's Art: Picasso's Guernica. I will help you to interpret this cultural icon, plus accompany you as you discover the decisive contribution to Modern Art of other Spanish artists such as Miro, Dalí or Buñuel. I'm happy to adapt this tour to your particular interests.

Your Madrid tour itinerary

•Once we have met outside of the Prado Museum (except on Sundays, where we'd meet at the Reina Sofia's*), we'd begin the tour with me sharing a brief history of the Prado institution and the origins of its collection. •Entering the museum, we'll explore the different European schools like the Italian Renaissance or the Flemish masters. •Later we will focus our attention on Spanish painters like Velazquez, Ribera, Greco, or Goya. •Either after a short walk (10 minutes) or a taxi cab if you prefer, we'll reach the Reina Sofia Museum (or vice versa). •There, we'll see the celebrated Picasso's Guernica and explore the Art of the first decades of the 20th century, including Cubism & Surrealism represented by artist like Miro, Dali, or Bunuel. •I will make sure this tour is a pleasant, informative and entertaining experience, where you learn about Art, History, Mythology, anecdotes and even some gossip! *On Sundays, due to the museums reduced schedule we will do Reina Sofia first, reversing the order.
