A small presentation about a group of twelve paintings by Maarten van Heemskerck known as the ‘The Twelve Strong Men’. In 2019 the Rijksmuseum acquired two panels from the series. These are presented together with the four panels already in the collection. See our news item on the acquisition for more information.
