L’Adorazione dei Magi di Artemisia Gentileschi
October 29, 2019 through January 26, 2020
A large altarpiece by the very first female painter who ever really entered the history of art is on temporary loan in town. Artemisia Gentileschi (Rome, 1593-Naples, 1653) painted this Adoration of the Shepherds on a public commission for the Cathedral of Pozzuoli, showing to be close to Caravaggio's feeling for light.
.:. The Diocesan Museum hosts the painting for their "Capolavori per Milano" (Masterchiefs for Milan) series, which is scheduled every year.
