Reassessing Rembrandt in the Mauritshuis Collection

Online event: 28 October 2020

Wednesday 28 October,  12pm-1 pm EST / 17:00-18:00 CET
Martine Gosselink, Executive Director of the Mauritshuis, and Quentin Buvelot, Senior Curator of The Mauritshuis

The American Friends of the Mauritshuis hosts a two-part lecture that delves deep into the most recent art historical thinking about the work of Rembrandt van Rijn in the permanent collection.  With a total of 11 autograph paintings by the master and another 7 that entered the collection as Rembrandts but are now considered to be from his circle, the presentations will explore the perennial question of authorship, highlight new insights brought about by restorations in the last 25 years, and reveal the important role science and conservation have played in defining Rembrandt’s oeuvre. The recording is available on Vimeo.

The webinar organized by the American Friends of the Mauritshuis in partnership with the Friends of CODART.
