Madrid - Prado Museum Museo del Prado

In addition there is an important collection of sculptures. The bewilderingly vast range of works of arts owned by the museum makes a detailed description impossible. Moreover for many years now, as a result of ongoing renovation work, rooms have been temporarily closed and pictures hung in alternative rooms, so that alterations in the layout of the museum are always possible. In the Prado itself a plan giving the exact location of individual works of art is not available; instead there is a complete guide called the "Key to the Prado". For the above-mentioned reasons it is not possible to indicate the positions of the pictures listed below, which in any case represent only the principal works of the most important painters represented in the museum.
