'The Death of the Virgin' is one of the most important works in the collection of Flemish Primitive art and it is the centre of this exhibition. By exploring six different themes, this exhibition will take a deeper look at 'The Death of the Virgin'. Each theme will be developed with reference to other great masterpieces, some in the collection, others brought to Bruges from all over the world. These works include paintings by Memling, Provoost and Bouts, but sculptures, manuscripts and pieces of music will also be used to bring visitors face to face with death in its different forms. Each theme is also further elaborated by a contemporary 'master', each one a virtuoso in his or her domain and each touched in some way by 'The Death of the Virgin'.
