Frans Hals Master of the Fleeting Moment
Published on August 23, 2024
In 2024, Berlin will celebrate one of the greatest portrait painters of all time: along with Rembrandt and Vermeer, Frans Hals ranks among the most outstanding Dutch painters of the 17th century. In addition to unconventional, expressive portraits of the Haarlem elite, he was the first artist in Holland to paint social outsiders as individuals in portrait format. With his extraordinarily relaxed and free style, this painter from Haarlem helped to inspire the Modernist painting like no other artist of his time. In cooperation with the National Gallery, London, and the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, the Gemäldegalerie is organizing a comprehensive monographic exhibition featuring some 75 works.
The exhibition runs from July 12 to November 3, 2024 at the Gemaldegalerie, Matthaikirchplatz, Berlin, 10785, Germany.
