Frans Hals
16 February – 9 June 2024
Extraordinarily productive, innovative, entertaining and a little rough around the edges: Frans Hals is regarded as one of the most distinctive artists of the 17th century, for his brisk, impressionistic painting style. After thirty years, it’s high time for a new retrospective. Following celebrated solo exhibitions of Vermeer and Rembrandt, in 2024 the Rijksmuseum presents Frans Hals, an exhibition of some 50 of the Dutch master’s greatest paintings, many on loan from top international collections.
Frans Hals is organised by the Rijksmuseum in partnership with the National Gallery, London, and Gemäldegalerie, Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, and through a special collaboration with the Frans Hals Museum in Haarlem.
