Regular guided tour: In golden light
For many centuries, Italy, with its abundance of art and culture and mild climate, has attracted artists from other, particularly northern countries. In the 17th century, these included many Dutch and Flemish artists. From around 1640, some specialized in landscape painting, a popular independent genre since around 1600, including Jan Both, Adam Pynacker, and Jan Asselijn. The artists organized themselves into local communities, the best known being the Roman Bentvueghels. Their member Pieter Bodding van Laer gathered a group called the Bamboccianti. After returning to the Netherlands, the Italians quickly became famous. This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to see works by all the main representatives of the (long-neglected) Dutch Italianate school. The paintings are part of a private collection in Luxembourg and have never been exhibited in public before.
