Between Rembrandt and Van Gogh: 19th-Century Dutch Artists
1:00 pm–2:30 pm
Tickets (Member / Nonmember)
In-Person $28 / $35
Livestream $16 / $20
Discuss the social and cultural climate that inspired Dutch artists of the 19th century, as well as their complex relationship to art of the past. Although they had a deep veneration for earlier figures such as Rembrandt, they were also firmly committed to a more modern approach that paved the way for a figure like Van Gogh.
