Forms and symbols of the Old Testament are already shown from the early Christian wall paintings, mosaics, sarcophagi and manuscripts. However, from the Renaissance onwards, these issues give the opportunity for many great painters to present brilliant samples of unique talent and the creative imagination.<\/p>\n<p>Great engravings of the Renaissance and Baroque brilliant artists like Lucas van Lefnten (1494-1533), Heinrich Alntegkrever (1502-1558), Albrecht Alntorfer (1480-1538) and Rembrandt (1606-1669), and canvas of important representatives of the most famous schools of Italy and the Netherlands (16th and 17th century) enrich its content.<\/p>\n<p>Angela Tamvaki -Curator National Gallery<\/p>\n<p>Sponsor: Piraeus Bank<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>National Gallery, 21\/9\/1993 &#8211; 17\/10\/1993<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":88308,"template":"","class_list":["post-48896","ekthesi","type-ekthesi","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
