Exhibition
Masters of the Everyday: Dutch Artists in the Age of Vermeer
Vermeer and his Contemporaries from the British Royal Collection
The exhibition at The Mauritshuis contains works by masters such as Gerard ter Borch, Gerrit Dou, Pieter de Hooch, Gabriël Metsu and Jan Steen, which are regarded as some of the most important Dutch genre paintings in the Royal Collection. The highlight of the exhibition is The Music Lesson by Johannes Vermeer.
Never before has such a large group of genre paintings from the British Royal Collection been on view in the Netherlands. It is a great honour to have them in the Mauritshuis for the duration of the exhibition.
