(Drivebycuriosity) - Mexico City has a legion of museums, you can see them almost at every corner. Many of them are small specialized collections. On Wednesday my wife and I visited the Museo Nacional de San Carlos, which focuses on Old European Masters, but also has other exhibitions (mnsancarlos).
"Christ in Limbo" by Gillis Mostaert (16th century). Looks like an post-apocalyptic phantasy.
Above "Saint Blase" by Martin Bernat (late 15th century)-followed by an altar painting.
"The Holy Family" by a member of the circle de Girolama Francesoc Maria Mazzola.Il Parmigianimo (1503-1540).
The "Portrait of a Boy" looks like a Lucas Cranach painting but is creation by Piero di Cosimo (16th century). "Odalisca" is a painting by Henri Decaisne.
As you can see they also exhibit some modern photographies.
I saw the skeptic girl on a poster @ the museum`s entrance. They use this image to advertise for their permanent exhibition. Unfortunately this image, maybe a modern photography, was not there as I got told. That´s Mexico.
