Spain, 1000–1200: Art at the Frontiers of Faith
This event has already occurred
Description
Spain’s artistic traditions were driven in part by the Christian, Muslim and Jewish populations that called the region home. This exhibit, which focuses on a 200-year portion of Spain’s Middle Ages, showcases how objects and artistic themes crossed religious boundaries. It was during this time that there was a shift in power between Christian and Muslim rulers, a period coinciding with the Crusades happening elsewhere.
