First major UK exhibition dedicated to Artemisia postponed

The highly anticipated exhibition dedicated to Artemisia Gentileschi at the National Gallery in London has beensuspended and postponed. As a result of thewidespread spread of the Coronavirus worldwide, which has led to strict restrictions on travel and travel, the London museum has decided to postpone the opening of the major exhibition, scheduled for April 4, 2020, until a date to be determined when this difficult situation has ended.

The organizers hope to be able to open the Artemisia exhibition to the public as soon as possible and share their hard work and long commitment as soon as possible.
Also sorry was the director of the National Gallery, Gabriele Finaldi, who said that although it was a very difficult decision to make, it seemed the right one.

It will therefore only be a temporary postponement for the first major exhibition in the United Kingdom devoted to the famous seventeenth-century painter.
