Virtual Tour: Dutch Landscapes and Seascapes of the 16th Century

Image for Virtual Tour: Dutch Landscapes and Seascapes of the 16th Century
The Dutch invented the genre of landscape painting as we know it today. The flat, low-lying Netherlands does not boast the world’s most dramatic scenery, yet probably no place on earth was so often painted. The 17th-century Netherlanders loved their land which they worked so hard to reclaim from the sea, and maritime themes were naturally popular in a seafaring nation like the Netherlands. In today’s virtual tour we’ll examine those 17th-century Dutch artists who created the marvelous views of land and sea which populated Dutch homes.  

Our free virtual tours allow you to step inside the museum and explore one of the greatest collections of paintings, from the comfort of your home.

We recommend you download zoom in advance. If you have any questions please contact Alexandra at ariley@timkenmuseum.org or 619-550-5955.
