Museum guides
The official Prado guide, the first to be published by the Museum, includes 400 full-colour pictures and is a unique publication which offers you the opportunity to learn about one of the world's largest and most important art galleries and prepare a well documented visit. The entries are written by specialists in the different schools of art (Spanish, Italian, Flemish, Dutch, French, German, British) and are aimed at both first-time visitors and those who would like to look deeper into the Prado holdings. This official guide offers an enjoyable illustrated survey of the history of painting, from the Romanesque to the 19th century, and its great masters, such as El Greco, Velázquez, Goya, Ribera, Bosch, Rubens, Titian... The volume also includes chapters on lesser known parts of the collections, such as drawings, sculptures and decorative arts.
