Meet Albert Edward, Prince of Wales ("Bertie" to his intimates): bon viveur, playboy, sportsman, and now -- detective. — It is 1886, and the greatest of all jockeys, Fred Archer (popularly known as the Tinman), has shot himself. An inquest is arranged with indecent haste. The jury rules that the Tinman has been unhinged by typhoid fever.

The Prince has his suspicions. He knew the Tinman, he knows the turf -- and he knows that Archer's last words were not those of a delirious man.

At great personal risk (and discomfort), the Prince of Wales turns detective. In his pursuit of the truth, Bertie is obliged to indulge in passionate encounters in country manor houses and seedy areas of Soho, and to endure chilly interviews with his mother, Queen Victoria. The result is a princely entertainment, thrilling,… Leer más

El Greco of Toledo by Jonathan Brown, Toledo Museum of Art Editorial Staff

The great Mannerist artist Domenikos Theotokopoulos, called El Greco, created painting that electrified the artistic, political and religious climate of his adopted city of Toledo. While the artistic formation of El Greco took place first in Crete, then in Venice, and later in Rome; it was upon his settling in Toledo that his singular genius flowered to the particular climate of learning and patronage that prevailed there.

An impetus for this exhibition was our realization that recent scholarship on El Greco and his work in Toledo and on the city itself, places him in a more reasoned historical context than did the mystical, romantic and even physiological interpretations of his art that have been widely promulgated during this century.
