exhibition "Montserrat, mother and land"

The exhibition deals with the phenomenon of collecting in relation to devotion, and more specifically on the image of the Virgin Mary, the monastery and the mountain of Montserrat, given that the Frederic Marès Museum has a room dedicated to this theme and this year the monastery’s millennium is celebrated. The exhibition aims to delve deeper into devotional collecting based on the Montserrat objects collected by Frederic Marès and others from institutions and private collections. The exhibition discourse emphasizes the iconographic evolution of the image of the Virgin of Montserrat, the objects of popular devotion related to her cult and its dissemination through the world of prints, highlighting the most exceptional works in the collection. You can consult more information about the exhibition “Montserrat, mare i terra” on the website of the Frederic Marès Museum. Last update: 12/17/2025
