Part of the exhibition: Beauty and Duty: The Art and Business of Renaissance Marriage
The major exhibition Beauty and Duty: The Art and Business of Renaissance Marriage, will examine the manner in which art played a vital role in the rituals and celebrations of Renaissance marriage. The exhibition, with loans from museums and libraries around the country, will center on the Museum’s own intriguing cassone panel, Scenes from Boccaccio’s “Il Ninfale Fiesolano,” painted in Florence in the early 15th century and recently attributed to the young Fra Angelico.
