The building it is housed in is impressive. There was a temporary Botero exhibition too. I wasn’t aware of this artist but quite liked some of the works. On the first floor there is art preceding Goya. I liked some of this. The next level was a mixture of Goya paintings and the engravings. I really liked the engravings. They had a description in English lit up every time you stepped in front of one. There were so many interesting engravings. This was my favourite part of the museum. I did like the paintings too and not just the Goya ones. I wasn’t sure whether to bother with the 3rd floor as I’m not normally into “artists inspired by” but I’m so glad I did. This part had some beautiful art works. I went through parts of this twice. Reasonably priced, there wasn’t a queue when I went in and it’s a great gallery to wander around. I spent about 2 hours there.See more..
4.5Museo Pablo Gargallo(305 reviews) - Experience the Life and Works of Gargallo Wednesday: 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM Speciality Museums • Art Museums
Visited this museum based on a recommendation of a friend (whose parents had a picture of Gargallo’s work Gran Profeta adorning her birth announcement). I’m so glad I had the opportunity to see the incredible works of this multi-talented talented artist. In addition to sculptures, there are casts, sketches, prints and cardboard works. The building itself, Argillo Palace, dates back to the mid-1600’s. The multi-level courtyard with its arched windows and pillars is a highlight. The museum is located in a lovely square in the heart of historic Zaragoza.See more..
