I've never been in the Rijksmuseum in before, so this was the first time I saw Rembrandt's The Night Watch; what an adventure :)
the room was really packed, but that didn't bother me, on the contrary, there was a certain admosphere which was actually pleasing, so I stayed there quite some time looking at the painting and the people around.
picture 3&4 were at the William Klein retrospective exposition
FOAM
Fabulous! I've been there and it was packed then too - it makes it feel like you're all part of the painting, doesn't it? Nice photos Renilde. Kx

ReplyDeleteik ben ook nog nooit in het Rijks geweest
binnenkort, binnenkort.....
mooi de bijna kleurloze foto's
dag!
great last image..the past, the present and the people.
ReplyDeleteyou're right Kylie & Alessandra, it was that strange feeling to be part of the painting; I had the same feeling when I looked at the townhouses along the canals, as if you may face any moment a person in black suit and a ruff around his neck! you imagine yourself in the golden age :)
ReplyDeletePatrice: veel plezier & kijkgenot in het Rijks!
