In this exhibition visitors can see paintings such as: ‘La Belle Ferronière’ (Musée du Louvre, Paris), the ‘Madonna Litta’ (Hermitage, Saint Petersburg) and ‘Saint Jerome’ (Pinacoteca Vaticana, Rome). One of the special things is that during this exhibition visitors can for the first time see the two versions of Leonardo’s ‘Virgin of the Rocks’ – belonging to the National Gallery and the Louvre.
