Francisco de ZurbaránZurbarán 1598–1664

Musée du Louvre

Oct 7, 2026 – Jan 25, 2027

A retrospective of the Spanish Golden Age painter, from his monumental monastic commissions in Andalusia to his portraits and still lifes.

Organized with the National Gallery, London, and the Art Institute of Chicago, the show is a choice of major paintings rather than a full catalogue, in seven sections that loosely follow his long career. Large canvases made for Andalusian monasteries are at its center, with room for the brief output of his son Juan de Zurbarán (1620–1649).

An epilogue traces his pull on the French avant-garde through Manet, Picasso and Juan Gris. It shares its space and ticket with Sculpter la couleur. Curated by Charlotte Chastel-Rousseau.
