Third lecture in the series on the exhibition The Collection of the Museu de Belles Arts, Valencia: Between Bosch and Sorolla at the FMCMP Madrid Centre.

Between the late 15th and early 16th centuries, Valencia was home to artists connected to the Flemish tradition and others from Italy, as well as a community of Nordic artists. The city also enjoyed a thriving art trade with the Flemish north and Italian south. Jesús Pascual Molina, senior lecturer and academic secretary of the Art History Department at the Universidad de Valladolid, examines the specific development of the Renaissance in Spain through the works in the art collection of the Museu de Belles Arts, Valencia.
