Do you want to explore a hidden gem in the heart of Madrid?

Between Atocha and the Puerta de Alcalá, you can find one of the most emblematic and sophisticated places in Madrid: The National Museum of Decorative Arts (MNAD).

With dramatic colours, velvety textures, botanical figures and elegant forms, the illustrator Irene Pérez reveals just some of the wonders hidden in this museum, located in one of the most beautiful neighborhoods in Madrid.

Just stepping inside the main hall, the Sèvres XXL chandelier will transport you to more luxurious times. You will lose yourself among the botanical details of its porcelain collection and you will understand why the classics are now a trend just by seeing the exquisite Hoffman glass or the current Cantilever chair.

Madrid will never stop to surprise us.

“A hidden gem” is the new THE MADRILEÑER by Irene Pérez for the MNAD (National Museum of Decorative Arts).

Artist: Irene Perez

Irene is an optimist, colorist, animalist and naturalist. Irene is also eclectic, botanical, dramatic… An explosion of creativity!

With her magical gaze, Irene took possession of each piece. She fell in love with all of them and then she had to choose. That was how she understood the essence of this unique museum, and created a "Gem".

Is there anything more difficult to turn the beautiful into something even more beautiful? Well Irene did it. Bra-va!! 

Her contribution is the eclectic perspective of someone who has traveled and lived in various countries and who easily navigate projects ranging from design, music, books, the universe of children, social issues; to projects related to fashion and culture in general. 

Colors, textures, magic, rituals, insects, plants, Irene's illustrations are an ode to beauty, which do justice to the most emblematic pieces of the MNAD.

Why_the_Madrilener

Why THE MADRILEÑER?

Carefully selected

Here, quality takes precedence over quantity . We hand-select each artist to offer you bold and expressive works of art that speak of Madrid and will transform your home.

We support independent artists

Run by creatives for creatives, we are passionate about championing and financially empowering emerging artists. Our mission is to increase the visibility (and the flow of money) to talented local artists, which in turn will help them propel their future.

Quality matters

1. Wooden frames

Available in natural, white, and black, all our frames are made from sustainably sourced wood. They are all handcrafted and finished, and the corners are carefully glued, sealed, and sanded.

2. Premium quality enamel

Our premium acrylic enamels are lightweight and UV-protective. This reduces shipping costs while also protecting your print from fading or discoloration due to sunlight exposure. Less expensive enamels do not offer these protective properties.

3. Museum-quality printing

All our prints are giclée, a process by which we reproduce works of art using a printer to create prints that are an exact replica of the original piece. To create these fine art prints, we combine specialized high-resolution printers with archival paper and inks. This printing method is distinguished by its exceptionally high level of quality and durability.

4. Sealed for protection

The back of each frame is sealed with acid-free archival materials to prevent dust and moisture from entering and damaging the print. Furthermore, our frames are delivered ready to hang, with all the necessary mounting hardware.

And... beware of cheap frames

Many companies sell frames made with acidic materials or using enamels that are not UV resistant. Cheap frames can permanently damage your print and expose it to harmful rays that will fade your artwork.

You can rest assured knowing that a THE MADRILEÑER frame is designed to protect our prints, using FSC-certified wood and 100% acid-free materials. That's why our prints have a lifespan of over 80 years, remaining in perfect condition for years... without any fading. Therefore, if you want your print to last, we always recommend purchasing prints with our premium frames.

Frame quality checklist:
- Wood from sustainable sources
- Acid-free archival materials
- UV protective nail polish
- It comes with the print pre-framed inside
- Sealed on the reverse
