Colnaghi is delighted to announce our New York exhibition 'The Art of Gold". This show will feature 23 pieces of ancient jewellery ranging from Archaic Greek and Pheonician to Norse, Javenese, and Renaissance gems

About

Alongside the jewellery we will present seven Latin American Viceregal pictures. As the Spanish began colonising Latin America in the early 16th century, art became a powerful tool for the Catholic Church. At first, sculptures and paintings were imported from Spain, but from the mid-16th century onwards, the Church set up guilds and workshops to train a local base of indigenous artisans. The Old Master works on view came out of these workshops, which created some of the most important artistic genres in Latin American art.
