Following the tremendous public and critical acclaim of Peabody Essex Museum’s 2011 exhibition, “Golden: Dutch and Flemish Masterworks from the Rose-Marie and Eijk van Otterloo Collection,” the museum is again exhibiting works from the renowned van Otterloo collection.
Featuring Seventeenth Century paintings, “Golden Light, Selections from the Van Otterloo Collection” explores Dutch art and life in the 1600s through masterworks by Hendrick Avercamp, Frans Hals, Pieter Claesz, Jan Brueghel the Elder and notable others. “Golden Light” will be on view at the museum from August 11 to September 1, 2013.
Over the last two decades, Rose-Marie and Eijk van Otterloo have assembled one of the world’s best private collections of Seventeenth Century Dutch and Flemish art. Superb in condition and impeccable in provenance, the van Otterloo collection boasts exemplary paintings, furniture and decorative arts from the Golden Age †an era of unsurpassed artistic, cultural, scientific and commercial accomplishment in the Netherlands.
