One of the great mysteries of seventeenth-century Dutch art is the identity of the artist who signed his paintings with the initials I.S. The works of this enigmatic master are in major art collections, although his known output is not very extensive.
Monogrammist I.S. (act. ca. 1630-60), An Old Man with a Fur Hat, ca. 1640
Serlachius Museum Gösta, Mänttä
The exhibition Master I.S. – The Enigmatic Contemporary of Rembrandt at Serlachius is the first comprehensive overview of the artist’s career. The exhibition also presents a number of contextual paintings by other Dutch artists. The exhibition and research project are realized in collaboration with Museum de Lakenhal in Leiden, the Netherlands. The exhibition is curated by Tomi Moisio.
