Teresa de la Vega

Socials:
Teresa de la Vega is an art historian, holding a degree in Geography and History from the Complutense University of Madrid, with specialisations in Art History, Ancient History, and Anthropology of the Americas. Her solid academic training, combined with a long and distinguished professional career, has established her as a leading expert in artistic and cultural heritage from a transversal, rigorous, and deeply humanistic perspective.

With extensive experience in teaching and cultural dissemination, Teresa has devoted much of her career to sharing artistic knowledge across a wide range of contexts. She has taught courses and delivered lectures at institutions such as the Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum, the Prado Museum, the National Archaeological Museum, and the Museum of the Americas, developing content that weaves together art, history, mythology, literature, gastronomy, and visual culture.

For over two decades, she has worked as a cultural guide in museums and on heritage routes throughout Madrid, Toledo, Segovia, and Ávila, as well as on specialised trips across Spain and Europe. Accredited as an Official Guide of the Community of Madrid and of National Heritage, she has worked with international audiences, universities, collectors, and private institutions, always with a close, reflective, and deeply educational approach.

A long-standing collaborator with the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum since 2006 and with the Friends of the Prado Museum Foundation since 2017, Teresa is known for her ability to make complex ideas accessible and for her sensitivity in revealing the multiple layers of meaning within works of art, inviting visitors to look slowly, with curiosity and a critical eye.
