About
The Meadows Museum has one of the largest collections of Spanish art outside of Spain. That’s pretty impressive. Royal Splendor is the first major exhibition to feature the art collection of King Charles IV of Spain, and the Meadows Museum is the only place outside of Spain to host this exhibit. The 80-plus works include drawings, paintings, engravings, sculptures, books, coins, and musical instruments.
