I am Constanza de Haro, graduated in Art History, passionate about culture and in love with my city, Madrid. My passion has led me to take a variety of courses and workshops to complement my university education. I continue my academic career to specialize in conservation and exhibition curation. My greatest desire is to continue learning and deepen my knowledge of art history, to be able to transmit to others my fascination with beauty and my enthusiasm for knowledge.

Tour description

Surely you have heard of Velázquez, José de Ribera or Caravaggio. But did you know why Ribera portrayed what appears to be a bearded man nursing a child? and did you know that Caravaggio had to flee Rome for murdering a man ?

If you are passionate about art and want to know the mysteries hidden in one of the largest and most important art galleries in the world, this TOUR is for you.

Together we will meet the great titans of art who continue to inspire us today. We will admire the mastery of Velázquez , the genius of Goya , passing through the delicacy of Fra Angélico until we reach the freshness of Rubens and the fantasmagoric style of Bosch . Without forgetting the most innovative teachers such as Sofonisba Anguissola , Rosa Bonheur or Artemisa Gentileschi.

This TOUR will leave you amazed and will reveal the most fascinating secrets hidden in the great works that you have always wanted to understand.

Constanza transmite su gusto por el arte. Lo que mas me gustó fue su naturalidad frente a otros guías a veces presumidos o excesivamente teatrales. Se nota q sabe y es muy profesional.

Una forma muy interesante de entender el arte. En definitiva para mí con nulo conocimiento de arte español, me deja con un grato recuerdo de haber podido comprendido un poco de la historia de artistas y de Madrid. Muy recomendado
