June - Adoration of the Shepherds

The subject of our June Object of the Month film is a 10 year research and restoration project at the Fitzwilliam Museum’s Hamilton Kerr Institute, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. This project enables Sebastiano del Piombo’s (1485-1547) Adoration of the Shepherds () to go on show at the Fitzwilliam for the first time in 70 years.
