Rembrandt at the Met * 9/18/07 – 1/6/08

To be different, the Metropolitan Museum, in NYC, is celebrating Rembrandt’s 401^st birthday this year, instead of his 400^th last year, like other museums across the world. The Met will exhibit all of its 228 Dutch paintings, beginning in September, in an event called “The Age of Rembrandt: Dutch Paintings in the Metropolitan Museum of Art”. All of the museum’s 20 Rembrandts will be on display, along with 11 Frans Hals and 5 Vermeers to be spread across 12 galleries. (comfy shoes!)
