The Gemeentemuseum is a modern palace of the arts. Step inside this enchanting building, wander through its beautiful daylit galleries and discover that special work of art that touches you personally. You might even leave a little in love. With that extraordinary painting by Monet, that impressive photography exhibition, the adventurous life of Piet Mondrian, the intimate galleries, or the period rooms full of Delftware. A visit to the Gemeentemuseum is always a memorable and meaningful experience.
Thank you Aad,
Had no idea there were so many Dutch artistic painters in the 1800’s. Yes,these artists deserve
to be recognised after all these years. When I grew up in Leiden, I only learned about the “old
masters”. I did enjoy visiting the museums as a youngster,mostly by myself!
Thanks again for giving me a chance to learn more about ‘Art’ at an older age.
Sincerely,
