Come and watch a fascinating and imminently humorous reveal of a multitude of artists whose art is within the Getty Collection.
Dutch Treat-Holland's Golden Age of Painting
How did a country as small as Holland produce such an incredible number of artists?! Rembrandt, van Ruisdael, de Hooch, and Jan Steen, among others, have given us memorable works of mythology, fields, faces and even humor. In this tour we will look at the landscapes, the portraits and the still lifes that defined this truly "golden age." Some of the names will be familiar; some less so, but their paintings are things of beauty and worthy of a closer look.
Our speaker, Ms. Lee Rubenstein, is a most active and entertaining lecturer. She holds dual degrees in English and History with a minor in Art History. She has been leading gallery tours for students at the Getty since 2012. In addition, she created and runs a volunteer art program in a Title I school.
This is a per-household event, so you can have as many persons gather around your screen as you can safely and comfortably accommodate. But you must register to receive the ZOOM link-which will be sent out to only those who register. That link will be sent out a few days in advance of the lecture.
There is no charge to attend this program.
