Are you a history aficionado? Do you feel like you could brush up your knowledge on Dutch Golden Age? For this month's Art for Lunch, Gallery attendant Mikayla Bradley will transport you back in time, treating you to an informative and captivating experience as you explore Master Strokes: Dutch and Flemish Drawings From the Victoria & Albert Museum.

You will gain new insight into the history of the Dutch Golden Age while observing how the political, economic and religious views of that era shaped the art that was being produced. You will be introduced to some of the most popular Master Artists such as Peter Paul Rubens, Rembrandt van Rijn, Anthony van Dyck, and Jan Brughel the Elder, along with lesser know Dutch and Flemish artists of that era. This Art for Lunch will be laced with fun facts, intriguing details, and captivating anecdotes. 

Get ready to be struck by beauty as you join us on Thursday, November 15, at 12:10 -12:50, and experience art through the lens of history. Free with admission.
