Bulgari y Roma, the new Bulgari exhibition in Madrid
Starting from November 30th, 2016, the Bulgari y Roma exhibition hosted at Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid will highlight how the Maison has always found in the monuments and architectural treasures of Rome a precious source of inspiration.
More than 150 pieces from the Bulgari’s Historical Archives and private collections will be on display alongside paintings, drawings, sculptures and artistic photographs of the Eternal City as seen by major European artists. Along the exhibition path, visitors will enjoy a stroll through Rome’s landmarks that come to a new, unexpected life through the reflections of gold and precious stones.
In a compelling journey through more than 130 years of the Maison, the pieces in platinum with diamonds of the 1920s until to the iconic Serpenti, Monete, Parentesi and Bvlgari Bvlgari collections will illustrate the magnificent Bulgari Italian style and its deep roots in the Eternal City.
