Unparalleled outside of Spain, the collections of the New York–based Hispanic Society Museum & Library focus on the art and culture of Spain, Portugal, Latin America, and the Philippines up to the early 20th century.
The traveling exhibition Glory of Spain showcases some 200 objects spanning more than 4,000 years of Hispanic art and culture, featuring artifacts from Roman Spain and decorative arts and manuscripts of Islamic Spain. Also on view are paintings, sculpture, decorative arts, and works on paper from medieval, “Golden Age,” and 18th-century Spain, including works from Central and South America under Spanish rule; and 19th- and early-20th-century Spanish paintings. Among the many artists represented are Francisco de Goya y Lucientes, El Greco, Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, Jusepe de Ribera, Diego Velázquez, and Francisco de Zurbarán.
