The exhibition will review the influences that German naturalist Alexander von Humboldt exerted on Colombian and Latin American art of the 19th and early 20th centuries, from a selection of more than one hundred paintings, drawings, prints, photographs and ancient books. A painting by the American artist Frederic Edwin Church (a view of Honda [Tolima] from the mid-19th century) will be shown for the first time in Colombia, as well as a collection of unpublished drawings by the German traveler Albert Berg, including a watercolor of the wax palms of Quindío, dated 1849/1850. In addition, unknown works by neoclassic and romantic painter Antoine-Jean Gros (France 1771-1835), titled as Baron Gros in 1824 (the introducer of photography in Colombia), the German Johann Moritz Rugendas, the Mexican Felipe Santiago Gutiérrez, as well as an extensive collection of more than fifty unpublished watercolors of Latin American types and customs of the 19th century, belonging to private collections from Bogotá, elaborated under the artistic and scientific influence of Humboldt.
