The Departure of the Bucintoro, painting by Francesco Guardi (1712-1793) (inv. no. 392), loaned to the exhibition “Venice. From Canaletto and Turner to Monet”, at the Beyeler Foundation, Basle. › “Beyond Boundaries. Islamic Art across Cultures”, at the Museum of Islamic Art, Doha, Qatar, Giuramento di Francesco priolo, Procurator della Chiesa di San Marco, Renaissance book (Inv. No. LA140) (1 December to 22 February 2009). The temporary loans of pieces are decided after an assessment has been made of the projects presented by the exhibition organisers. Collaboration with the National Museum of Ancient Art and the Soares dos Reis National Museum Long-term renewable loans were made to the National Museum of Ancient Art (mnaa) of the oil painting Jâcome Ratton, by Thomas Lawrence (1769-1830), two portraits of the second Marquises of Pombal, by Domenico Pelligrini (1759-1840) and two 18th-century Italian credences. Two 18th-century Portuguese beds and two 17th-century Flemish tapestries were loaned to the Soares dos Reis National Museum (Porto) under the same conditions. These pieces have formed part of the Foundation’s Collection for a long time, without ever having had the chance of being seen by the public, so that now they can be displayed on permanent exhibition at those museums. It should be remembered that, in 2006, the mnaa made a long-term deposit to the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum of the torso dating from the 1st century BC to the 1st century AD, a Roman copy of the Greek original, which Calouste Gulbenkian had given to the Portuguese State. 048.049 048.
