For the first time in Britain, a major exhibition celebrates Renaissance art from Siena during the politically volatile last century of the Sienese Republic. Comprising over one hundred paintings, sculptures, drawings, manuscripts and ceramics, it showcases the supreme skill and inventiveness of the Sienese artists of this period, many much less well known than they deserve, including Francesco di Giorgio and Domenico Beccafumi.
