Groeningemuseum, Bruges Belgium

Pieter Pourbus and the forgotten Masters

The Groeningemuseum houses a comprehensive survey of six centuries of Flemish and Belgian paintings by well-known and lesser-known artists. Pieter Pourbus is one of these forgotten masters. He created, for example, The Last Judgement, a work for the administrative country house of the Brugse Vrije castellany in 1551, but he also painted striking portraits of leading families. Besides works of art from Pourbus the exhibition holds many surprises in store for you. Guide ID is delighted that the Groeningemuseum has chosen the Podcatcher audio guide for this extraordinary exhibition which will be on show from 13 October - 18 January 2018.

The gardens of the Quinta da Regaleira were styled to represent ancient secret orders, with hidden tunnels and concealed symbolism.
