![Alessandro Allori
Alessandro di Cristofano di Lorenzo del Bronzino Allori (Florence, 31 May 1535 – 22 September 1607) was an Italian portrait painter of the late Mannerist Florentine school.
In 1540, after the death of his father, he was brought up and trained in art by a close friend, often referred to as his uncle, the mannerist painter Agnolo Bronzino, whose name he sometimes assumed in his pictures.[1] In some ways, Allori is the last of the line of prominent Florentine painters, of generally undiluted Tuscan artistic heritage: Andrea del Sarto worked with Fra Bartolomeo (as well as Leonardo da Vinci), Pontormo briefly worked under Andrea, and trained Bronzino, who trained Allori. Subsequent generations in the city would be strongly influenced by the tide of Baroque styles pre-eminent in other parts of Italy. Alessandro Allori](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/MdoHtmpUF1w/mqdefault.jpg)
![Museu Nacional dArt de Catalunya
The Museu Nacional dArt de Catalunya (Catalan pronunciation: [muˈzɛw nəsi.uˈnal ˈdaɾd də kətəˈluɲə], English: National Art Museum of Catalonia), abbreviated as MNAC, is the national museum of Catalan visual art located in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. Situated on Montjuïc hill at the end of Avinguda de la Reina Maria Cristina, near Pl Espanya, the museum is especially notable for its outstanding collection of romanesque church paintings, and for Catalan art and design from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including modernisme and noucentisme.
The museum is housed in the Palau Nacional, a huge, Italian-style building dating to 1929. The Palau Nacional, which has housed the Museu dArt de Catalunya since 1934, was declared a national museum in 1990 under the Museums Law passed by the Catalan Government.
That same year, a thorough renovation process was launched to refurbish the site, based on plans drawn up by the architects Gae Aulenti and Enric Steegmann, who were later joined in the undertaking by Josep Benedito. The Oval Hall was reopened in 1992 on the occasion of the Olympic Games, and the various collections were installed and opened over the period from 1995 (when the Romanesque Art section was reopened) to 2004. The Museu Nacional dArt de Catalunya (Museu Nacional) was officially inaugurated on 16 December 2004.
It is one of the largest museums in Spain.

![Kees van Dongen
Cornelis Theodorus Maria Kees van Dongen (26 January 1877 – 28 May 1968) was a Dutch-French painter who was one of the leading Fauves.
Van Dongens early work was influenced by the Hague School and symbolism and it evolved gradually into a rough pointillist style.
From 1905 onwards – when he took part at the controversial 1905 Salon dAutomne exhibition – his style became more and more radical in its use of form and colour.
The paintings he made in the period of 1905–1910 are considered by some to be his most important works.[3] The themes of his work from that period are predominantly centered around the nightlife; he paints dancers, singers, masquerades and theatre. Van Dongen gained a reputation for his sensuous – at times garish – portraits of especially women.
