Skyway Level, Stent Family WingThis exhibition consists of 35 medieval and renaissance masterpieces
from one of the world’s finest collections. This internationally
traveling exhibition of rare treasures from The Victoria and Albert
Museum presents works dating from 300 to 1600 AD, many of which have
never before traveled to the U.S. Following the tour, the works will
be returned to newly-restored galleries at the Victoria and Albert
Museum. Highlights include a Leonardo da Vinci notebook, the Codex
Forster I, and the Symmachi Panel, a 5th century Roman ivory panel
etched to commemorate a wedding.
