The Mauritshuis Royal Picture Gallery in The Hague, Netherlands
The Mauritshuis is an art museum in The Hague, Netherlands. The museum houses the Royal Cabinet of Paintings which consists of 854 objects, mostly Dutch Golden Age paintings. The collections contains works by Johannes Vermeer, Rembrandt van Rijn, Jan Steen, Paulus Potter, Frans Hals, Jacob van Ruisdael, Hans Holbein the Younger, and others. Originally, the 17th century building was the residence of count John Maurice of Nassau. It is now the property of the government of the Netherlands and is listed in the top 100 Dutch heritage sites.
In 1631, John Maurice, Prince of Nassau-Siegen, a cousin of stadtholder Frederick Henry, bought a plot bordering the Binnenhof and the adjacent Hofvijver pond in The Hague, at that time the political centre of the Dutch Republic. On the plot, the Mauritshuis was built as a home between 1636 and 1641, during John Maurice's governorship of Dutch Brazil. The Dutch Classicist building was designed by the Dutch architects Jacob van Campen and Pieter Post. The two-storey building is strictly symmetrical and contained four apartments and a great hall. Each apartment was designed with an antechamber, a chamber, a cabinet, and a cloakroom. Originally, the building had a cupola, which was destroyed in a fire in 1704.
After the death of Prince John Maurice in 1679, the house was owned by the Maes family, who leased the house to the Dutch government. In 1704, most of the interior of the Mauritshuis was destroyed by fire. The building was restored between 1708 and 1718.
In 1774, an art gallery open to the public was formed in what is now the Prince William V Gallery. That collection was seized by the French in 1795 and only partially recovered in 1808. The small gallery space soon proved to be too small, however, and in 1820, the Mauritshuis was bought by the Dutch state for the purpose of housing the Royal Cabinet of Paintings. In 1822, the Mauritshuis was opened to the public and housed the Royal Cabinet of Paintings and the Royal Cabinet of Rarities. In 1875, the entire museum became available for paintings.
The Mauritshuis was privatised in 1995. The foundation set up at that time took charge of both the building and the collection, which it was given on long-term loan. This building, which is the property of the state, is rented by the museum. In 2007, the museum announced its desire to expand. In 2010, the definitive design was presented. The museum would occupy a part of the nearby Sociëteit de Witte building. The two buildings would be connected via a tunnel, running underneath the Korte Vijverberg. The renovation started in 2012 and finished in 2014. During the renovation, about 100 of the museum's paintings were displayed in the Gemeentemuseum in the Highlights Mauritshuis exhibition. About 50 other paintings, including the Girl With the Pearl Earring, were on loan to exhibitions in the United States and Japan. The museum was reopened on 27 June 2014 by King Willem-Alexander.
The collection of paintings of stadtholder William V, Prince of Orange was presented to the Dutch state by his son, King William I. This collection formed the basis of the Royal Cabinet of Paintings of around 200 paintings. The collection is currently called the Royal Picture Gallery. The current collection consists of almost 800 paintings and focusses on Dutch and Flemish artists, such as Pieter Brueghel, Paulus Potter, Peter Paul Rubens, Rembrandt van Rijn, Jacob van Ruisdael, Johannes Vermeer, and Rogier van der Weyden. There are also works of Hans Holbein in the collection in the Mauritshuis.

正統之美：荷蘭名畫臨紐約弗里克藝術館
鶩然回首，秋日的落葉仿佛穿透時光，回到久遠的輝煌。
紐約這座大都市，歷來就不缺乏藝術的氣息，而現在它迎來了貴客，一位特別的少女。
清澈的雙眸，恬靜的神情，那一剎那就此定格，任後人模仿，再無法重現那樣的眼神，這就是那幅《戴珍珠耳環的少女》，歷經三百多年，那回眸的一瞬仍然令人怦然心動。
弗里克(Frick)美術收藏館助理館長 Margaret Iacono
這位特別的少女充滿神秘色彩，我們不知道她是誰，好奇她為誰而回眸，她那副美麗的珍珠耳環又源自何處。畫作並沒有標明創作時間，她身著有十七世紀風格的異域裝束，神秘的令人難以捉摸。
The girl in particular has that wonderful sense of mystery, we don't know who she is, we want to know who she is turning around to face, and where did she get that spectacular pearl that she is wearing. She's timeless. Although she is dressed in exotic garb (clothes) for the 17th century, she still appeals to us today with that wonderful penetrating gaze.
弗里克美術收藏館就位於紐約第五大道與七十街的交匯處，原本是一座私宅，後來成為了藝術收藏館，不僅展出私人收藏，也有展品足以傳世。奇妙的是，這裡的氛圍與這次展覽剛好契合。
弗里克(Frick)美術收藏館助理館長 Margaret Iacono
這些畫作與我們收藏的藝術品相得益彰，甚至與美術收藏館本身也十分相合，因為兩者都蘊藏著歲月的光芒，畫作來自十七世紀的殿堂，弗里克收藏館也曾是一座黃金時代的豪宅，所以我們的內飾非常相似。
We felt there were many correspondences between the paintings in our collections and also the institutions themselves, because they are both historic places. They are a 17th century palace, and we are actually a Golden Age mansion, so our interiors are very similar.
現在迎來的這批畫作，共有15幅，都是來自荷蘭的莫瑞泰斯皇家美術館，這裡也是這些名畫全球巡展的最後一站。細膩的筆觸，栩栩如生的細節，畫家心中的世界躍然紙上。
弗里克(Frick)美術收藏館助理館長 Margaret Iacono
這是一只畫風精美的小鳥，在十七世紀的荷蘭家庭非常常見，這幅畫的美妙之處在於，像畫家Vermeer一樣，這幅畫的作者Fabritius的傳世之作很少。他英年早逝，32歲去世，那年在代爾夫特發生了一場可怕的爆炸，不止奪去了畫家的生命，也使他的工作室連同大部份畫作付之一炬。他的畫作細膩精美，在整體風格和光的運用上與Vermeer很相似。
It's a spectacular little bird, a popular per in 17th century Dutch homes. It is fabulous because, like Vermeer, there are very few paintings that can be attributed to Fabritius. He dies very young, 32, and there is a horrible explosion in the city of Delft, which not only kills him, but destroys his studio and probably most of his paintings. But it is a precious gorgeous work and it has that same tranquility and sense of light that you see in Vermeer.
17世紀，是荷蘭藝術的鼎盛時期，也被稱為黃金時代。
弗里克(Frick)美術收藏館助理館長 Margaret Iacono
這次的畫展十分特別，特別之處在於他們來自十七世紀的荷蘭，無論你有著何種身份背景，文化不分國界。因為它們大部份是反映生活，風景畫、還有一些生活中的場景，適合所有人欣賞。
This show in particular, Dutch paintings in particular, from the 17th century, I think are very accessible no matter what your cultural heritage, because they are largely secular, landscape paintings, scenes of everyday life and still lives, I think appeal to everybody.
正統的藝術即使歷經歲月的洗禮，仍然如珍珠般閃著溫潤的光澤，感動著後人，也為人們指引正途。

Η Βρετανικη βασιλικη οικογενεια εχει στην προσωπικη της κατοχη μια απο τις μεγαλυτερες και σπουδαιοτερες συλλογες ζωγραφικης. Και τι θα ηταν η αξια της συλλογης αν δεν την εβλεπε κανενας για να μιλαει για αυτην. Γιαυτο ποτε ποτε η βασιλισα Ελισαβετ κανει επιδειξη της συλλογης της στην τηλεοραση.

Mauritshuis Photos & Reviews Museums Royal Picture Gallery Mauritshuis Mauritshuis Art Museum Established in 1822, the Mauritshuis “Maurits House” in English, a large residence built in the 1630s named after its owner Johan Maurits van Nassau-Siegen, governor of the Dutch possessions in Brazil — is an art museum in The Hague in the Netherlands that is home to the “Royal Cabinet of Paintings”, a collection of more than 800 Dutch Golden Age paintings. Its most famous possession is Johannes Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring with other paintings from Rembrandt van Rijn, Jan Steen, Paulus Potter, Frans Hals, and Hans Holbein the Younger among others. The museum closed for renovation in 2012 and just opened this past June, introducing a new identity designed by Studio Dumbar.The old logo, OMG, even for Dutch, weird-factor standards was super weird; it was like the house was about to be abducted and probed by this giant “M” that came from outer space. Really, really bizarre logo, designed in the 1980s by UNA designers. The new logo consists of a simple, contemporary, sans serif wordmark and one of the most stunning monograms I’ve seen all year. In the vein the disappearing-serif-stencil trend from typefaces like Dala Floda or logos like Blank this logo takes it to its most refined and elegant execution yet. It’s perfectly readable, it’s sexy, and it’s a wonderful blend of contemporary and classical.

17th century 'selfies' show at Dutch museum
These days, anybody with a smart phone can snap a selfie in a split second. Now the modern obsession has inspired a new exhibition in the Netherlands.
Back in the Dutch Golden Age, they were called self-portraits and were the preserve of highly trained artists who thought long and hard about every aspect of the painting.
The Mauritshuis museum in The Hague is staging an exhibition focusing solely on these 17th century self-portraits, highlighting the similarities and the differences between modern-day snapshots and historic works of art.
