The museum will open a new space dedicated to the Master of Cabestany thanks to the incorporation of four sculptural fragments from the monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes, which were attributed to this master and his workshop, which were acquired by the Generalitat de Catalunya.
The four pieces would have been part of the Biblical cycles that decorated the large altarpiece of the church of Sant Pere de Rodes, built in the second third of the 12th century and destroyed during the first third of the 19th century. As a result of the incorporation into the collection of these four sculptural fragments, the Museu Nacional has continued to work and research to locate other fragments of the large portal, which will also be part of this new space.
In 2014 the museum dedicated an exhibition to the Master of Cabestany, which was the last of the exhibition, and presented four of the almost unpublished marble heads. Now, a new space will allow us to incorporate the latest research and to present a hypothetical reconstruction of the portal, as well as to offer a new interpretation of the function and context of this masterpiece.
This new space is part of the cycle of projects related to the collection of Romanesque art that is being carried out by the MNAC in the context of the centenary of the rediscovery of the Romanesque murals and the formation of the main nucleus of the current collection of Romanesque art. Due to the complexity and special characteristics of this unique collection of works, these projects, which combine heritage, conservation and dissemination aspects of the collection, will be extended over a three-year cycle, from 2023 to 2025.

Gaudi&#39;s art is so beautiful, it can only be described as beautiful! The cutting-edge design makes it feel like you&#39;re immersed in a soft ocean. The gold tickets I bought on Ctrip are not only cheaper than on tb, but they also come with playing cards&mdash;an absolute steal!

La Pedrera – Casa Milà

The black iron railing patterns and the top floor of the facade are the highlights. Compared with Casa Mil&agrave; and Sagrada Familia, Casa Mil&agrave; is a bit plain. It is best to visit Mil&agrave; first among the three treasures of Gaud&iacute;, then Casa Mil&agrave;, and Sagrada Familia. You will feel that the experience is getting more and more exciting and shocking.

The entrance is small, in the city center. Be sure to get the audio guide first. Each painting has a story. I spent three hours looking at it carefully! You can walk to Casa Mil&agrave; and see the scenery of Barcelona along the way! It&#39;s a great time!
