Cagnacci: Painting Beauty and Death

Presented by Cincinnati Art Museum at Cincinnati Art Museum, Cincinnati OH

Ongoing
Cagnacci: Painting Beauty and Death

Guido Cagnacci’s Death of Cleopatra will be the centerpiece of this tightly focused exhibition and will introduce museum visitors to a great Italian painter little known outside his homeland.

Guido Cagnacci’s Death of Cleopatra, painted in oil on a canvas over five feet wide, will be the centerpiece of this tightly focused exhibition. The painting, which normally hangs in the Pinacoteca di Brera in Milan, is one of Cagnacci’s most intriguing and important works. This exhibition will introduce museum visitors to a great Italian painter little known outside his homeland, and present a painting as beautiful and provocative today as it was in the middle of the seventeenth century, when it was made.
