Symposium
On the occasion of the exhibition, Museum Prinsenhof Delft and the RKD – Netherlands Institute for Art History are organizing the symposium Pieter de Hooch: a characteristic painter from the Delft school, which on the one hand will present the results of the research carried out in preparation for the exhibition. On the other hand, the symposium will shed light on De Hooch as an artist in the Delft context and on the more general phenomenon of local schools of painting in the Dutch Republic.
