Ferdinand Bol and Govert Flinck

the long version

Bol and Flinck are Rembrandt's two most important pupils. Their impressive work is admired all over the world, streets have been named after them, and after three and a half centuries this exhibition is at last bringing them out of their teacher's shadow. With superb portraits and dramatic scenes based on the Bible and the Classics, Bol and Flinck met the demands of their clients, who included prosperous merchants and representatives of the country's maritime and political power. Exhibition: Museum Het Rembrandthuis & Amsterdam Museum, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (13.10.2017-18.02.2018).
