This spring and summer, Kadriorg Palace in the heart of Tallinn’s Kadriorg Park will host the year’s premier exhibition, Espa\u00f1a Blanca y Negra: Spanish Landscapes from Fortuny to Picasso.<\/p>\n

When one thinks of Spanish landscapes, visions of Mediterranean holidays, bright sunshine, blue skies, and lush nature often come to mind. However, this image only captures part of the story. Spain also encompasses the harsh and desolate terrains of Castile, characterised by strife, religious fanaticism, and poverty.<\/p>\n

Which of these scenes truly represents Spain? This question became a central theme in Spanish culture during the late 19th century, sparking a dialogue between the contrasting visions of White Spain and Black Spain. This rich cultural conversation gave rise to exceptional literature, music, and art.<\/p>\n

The exhibition at Kadriorg Art Museum delves into these two contrasting extremes in Spanish painting. It features masterpieces from several Spanish museums and private collections, showcasing works by renowned artists such as Mari\u00e0 Fortuny<\/b>, Eugenio Lucas Vel\u00e1zquez<\/b>, Joaqu\u00edn Sorolla<\/b>, Ignacio Zuloaga<\/b>, Ramon Casas<\/b>, Santiago Rusi\u00f1ol<\/b>, and Pablo Picasso<\/b>.<\/p>\n
