Photos of some of the paintings on display during a press viewing of the exhibition ‘British Baroque: Power and Illusion‘ at the Tate Britain in London, Britain, 03 February 2020.
The exhibition focuses on baroque culture in Britain and runs from 04 February 2020 to 19 April 2020.
This is the first time that Tate has staged a show devoted to the later 17th century and the first to explore baroque art in Britain. It will be a chance to encounter a rich, sophisticated but overlooked era of art history. Many of the works will be on display for the first time – some borrowed from the stately homes they have hung in since they were made.
