Divine Beauty ! a wonderful exhibition

Divine Beauty ! of an exhibition... 

The churches of Calvados, Manche and Orne have unsuspected riches; 42 paintings, most of them never before exhibited, are gathered here and witness this religious pictorial production.

We discover local artists as well as large national painters, while getting to know the sponsors and donors in this region.

Following a thematic journey tracing the religious holidays, these paintings from the sixteenth to the twentieth centuries offer us a new perspective on low-Norman churches.

Another interest of this exhibition is the beautiful lighting of the paintings made by the museum, completely different from the churches.
We (re)discover many details or colors of these very pretty pictures.

An exhibition not to be missed : Divine Beauty ! at the Museum of Normandy in Caen until May 17, 2015.
