A journey through the halls of the Prado Museum unveils the captivating odyssey of the Peregrine Pearl, from its discovery in Panama to being adorned by monarchs and stars. This gem, which traverses centuries and borders, epitomises the wealth and mystery of history, gracing both kings and cinema icons alike.

The Macip family's workshop in 16th-century Valencia revolutionised the production of devotional art. Under Vicent Macip and Joan de Joanes, they generated multiple versions of religious icons, balancing economic success with innovation and tradition.

The copiers of the Prado have evolved from dominating the corridors of a museum that was open just one day a week, to becoming a select group within an institution that now draws millions. With stringent rules and a deep respect for the original art, these artists keep alive a unique tradition, balancing authenticity and adaptation in a constantly changing world.
