Carlos Zurita Delgado. Duke of Soria, Chairman of the Friends of the Museo del Prado Foundation, 1988-What's on
Very similar to how it was when I was 14 and visited it for the first time. It was a museum with little space, few floors and a modest budget. So there we were and that was the reality we faced. I also found a foundation in the same situation. We had 1,600 members, twelve corporate supporters and very little interest from the press, which is also essential and helps us a lot. So that was the situation I encountered. I must say that the Museum was still in its infancy, with a structure that was very similar to the time of its foundation and little more. Really, little more.
