Jheronimus Bosch, Touched by the Devil

With major exhibitions planned in Holland, Venice and Madrid and then traveling, 2016 will mark the 500th anniversary of the death of Jheronimus Bosch (1460 - 1516) one of the most celebrated painters of all times, known worldwide for his fantastic imagery of heaven and hell, at the same time filled with a sense of humanity. For four years a team of Bosch experts traveled the world to examine all the known Bosch paintings. With high-res macro, x-ray and infrared cameras they examine the wooden panels. For the first time we will be able to see behind the varnish, to penetrate into his paintings and to unveil the so far unseen creative process. At the same time this is also the first vast investigation and search for lost Bosch paintings.
