Exhibition of Works by the Old Masters: Winter Exhibition

About the exhibition

The Royal Academy’s 1910 winter exhibition presented works by the Old Masters. The documented Italian paintings include devotional subjects by Antonello da Messina, Giovanni di Paolo, Filippino Lippi and Vittore Carpaccio. The historical attribution of Antonello’s Madonna differs from the painting’s current museum attribution. Examples securely identified in the museum’s object histories are Antonello da Messina’s Madonna and Child (c. 1475; oil and tempera on panel transferred from panel) and Giovanni di Paolo’s The Annunciation and Expulsion from Paradise (c. 1435; tempera on panel). The connected works form a partial checklist; exact opening and closing days are not established by this evidence.
