Museo Julio Romero de Torres, Art museum in Plaza del Potro, Córdoba, Spain.
The Museo Julio Romero de Torres is an art museum located at Plaza del Potro in Córdoba dedicated to the painter's work and life. Six exhibition halls display his paintings, posters, photographs, and personal belongings that document his artistic practice and interests.
The museum opened in 1931 following the painter's death, when his family donated his works to Córdoba. This donation established a lasting tribute to the artist and his contribution to the region's cultural heritage.
The exhibition displays numerous portraits of women wearing traditional Andalusian dress, deeply influenced by flamenco and regional traditions. These works show how the painter was inspired by the visual culture surrounding him in his native region.
The museum is housed in a historic building in central Córdoba and is easily accessible on foot. Visitors can obtain tickets at the entrance or through the Tourist Information Center in the city.
The museum shares its historic building with the Museum of Fine Arts and occupies part of what was once a medieval hospital. This shared use of a former medieval medical building adds an unexpected historical layer to the art viewing experience.
