The National Gallery is currently closed in London, but is set to reopen from December 3. “Although this film cannot replace the experience of seeing the exhibition in person at the National Gallery, it will allow us to share Artemisia’s story and paintings with as many people as possible, in particular those who cannot make it to Trafalgar Square right now.” “This exhibition and Artemisia’s moment in the spotlight has been a long time coming – the show was postponed from April due to the first lockdown, and now it has temporarily closed due to the second,” said Treves. The virtual offering takes visitors on an 30-minute, online tour of the five-star exhibition ‘Artemisia’ at the National Gallery with curator Letizia Treves. The National Gallery has developed a new revenue stream amid COVID-19 by charging for an online tour of Artemisia, an exhibition dedicated to Artemisia Gentileschi.
