Saints and Heroes: Art of Medieval and Renaissance Europe

Step back in time and immerse yourself in the spiritual, domestic, and chivalric worlds of the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Opening March 20, with Member Previews March 18–19, the Art Institute unveils the new Deering Family Galleries of Medieval and Renaissance Art, Arms, and Armor, presenting nearly 700 objects from the museum’s rich holdings of art from 1200 to 1600: monumental altarpieces, exquisite jewelry, and the beloved arms and armor collection.

The new exhibit is fantastic. I saw it with a friend a couple of weekends ago and we were very impressed!
