Hieronymus Bosch. The Legacy

Residenzschloss, Dresden

NOW CLOSED

Enthusiasm for the fantastic visual world of painter Hieronymus Bosch (circa 1450–1516) remains as strong today as ever. Characterised by a surreal atmosphere and mysterious mise-en-scène, the late medieval artist’s motifs fascinate and horrify at the same time. Bosch’s scenes of hell, temptations of saints and portrayal of wicked people being punished present crowds of bizarre hybrid creatures, the gruesome sight of which provokes a sense of discomfort in the observer.
