A new series of talks where Ronnie compares two main works which overlap in theme but with highly contrasted results due to differences in temperament, ambition and the society in which the artists lived. “Looking Real” compares Van Eyck (Virgin and Child with Cannon van Der Paele) and Velazquez (Las Hilanderas). Two very different approaches to presenting us with “reality”. How do they go about it and why are they so different? Does one seem “more real” than the other? Come and see what you think!
