Coming soon: "Pride of place: Dutch cityscapes of the Golden Age"

Yesterday when we were in the National Gallery of Art, I was wondering where the "View of Haarlem" was that I saw there two years ago.

It turns out that there is a very exiting exhibition now in the Mauritshuis in The Hague, "Pride of place: Dutch cityscapes of the Golden Age". The best news is that the exhibition will be on display in the National Gallery from February 2009. The Jan Lieven exhibition by the way, will move on to the Milwaukee Art Museum, and later in 2009 to the Netherlands.

I'm really looking forward to see the Dutch Cityscapes exhibition. It will even include the famous "View of Delft" by Vermeer, that Sasha and I saw when we visited the Mauritshuis in The Hague four years ago.

Yep, it's on its way, according to an article with video on a Dutch news site. I don't understand that the article claims the painting "hing daardoor even boven de Hofvijver" --was hanging above a reservoir next to the parliament-- but maybe that happended when getting it into the truck, after they took the painting down through the window...
