SOBRE LA EXPOSICIÓN

A historical exhibition covering her life, from little Tanuca to her time as the Duchess of Alba, as well as her extraordinary contribution to the conservation of the immense artistic and historical legacy she inherited and the internationalization of the House of Alba.

The exhibition, which celebrates the centenary of the birth of the 18th Duchess of Alba, is the result of three years of research and work by its curators, Eugenia Martínez de Irujo and Cristina Carrillo de Albornoz, together with the Casa de Alba Foundation team. Through more than 200 pieces, they have managed to convey a panoramic and multifaceted image of this great woman of Spain, and everything that made her a great Duchess.

The exhibition reflects the Duchess's devotion to Seville and is held in what was likely her favorite residence, the Palacio de las Dueñas, a spectacular 15th-century Gothic-Mudéjar and Renaissance building.

CAYETANA: GRANDE DE ESPAÑA inaugurates a new temporary exhibition space, the Sala del Patio del Aceite, which has been restored over two years and will kick off a rich cultural program at the Palacio de las Dueñas.
