The Prado Guide

The Official Guide to the Prado, with 400 images in full colour, is a unique publication for learning about one of the largest and most important art galleries in the world.

With texts by specialists in each school of art (Spanish, Italian, Flemish, Dutch, French, German and British), it is aimed at both the first-time visitor and those who wish to learn more about the Museum's collections.

From the Romanesque to 19th-century art, the Official Guide offers an enjoyable, illustrated survey of world painting and the work of the great masters such as El Greco, Velázquez, Goya, Ribera, Bosch, Rubens, Titian and many others. It also features chapters on less well-known aspects of the collections, such as drawing, sculpture and the decorative arts.

The Official Guide is the best way to enjoy and understand the Museo del Prado.
