A brand new Heritage Malta masterclass providing new insights on Northern European artworks in the MUŻA collection will be delivered by Krystle Attard Trevisan on the 20th of October, at MUŻA in Valletta.
Entitled Art Up Close: new Insights on Northern European artworks in the MUŻA collection – the 17th century Netherlandish works, the masterclass will be focusing on paintings that are lesser known, lesser studied and perhaps maybe less appreciated. Nonetheless, they are increasingly attracting attention.
The Flemish paintings at MUŻA have received scholarly attention, including works by Matthias Stom, Theodoor van Thulden and the circle of Van Dych. The Netherlandish works, which speak a noticably different artistic language, have so far been largely overlooked.
