Cummer Nassau Lecture Series | The Golden Age of Dutch Art, With UNF Professor Dr. Debra Murphy

This is the first lecture of the Cummer Nassau Winter Lecture Series
Experience the flourishing artistic production during 17th-century Holland, a period that saw a blend of economic prosperity and creative expression. The burgeoning middle class expanded patronage and the demand for specialized subjects including portraits, still-lifes, landscapes, and domestic interiors. Print production thrived in many forms including political broadsides, cartoons, and satire, as seen in the current exhibition Fake News and Lying Pictures: Political Prints in the Dutch Republic, curated by Maureen Warren and organized by Krannert Art Museum, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Delve into the works of Hals, Rembrandt, and Vermeer, and selections from the Museum’s Permanent Collection.
Fake News and Lying Pictures is sponsored in part by the Getty Foundation through its initiative, The Paper Project: Prints and Drawings Curatorship in the 21st Century; Dutch Culture USA program by the Consulate General of the Netherlands in New York; Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation: Netherland-America Foundation; Historians of Netherlandish Art.
