Examine featured portraits by Rubens and Rembrandt in our current exhibition Masterstrokes: Dutch and Flemish Drawings from the Golden Age. What do you notice? How do they compare to portraits made today? Take your observations into the studio and create a unique and personal family portrait using graphite, charcoal and ink.
The Art Gallery of Alberta respectfully acknowledges that we are located in Treaty 6 Territory and Region 4 of the Metis Nation of Alberta. We respect this as the traditional and contemporary land of diverse Indigenous Peoples including the Plains Cree, Woodland Cree, Beaver Cree, Nitsitapi/Blackfoot, Métis, Nakota Sioux, Anishinaabe/Saulteaux/Ojibwe and Dene Peoples. We also acknowledge the many Indigenous, Inuit and Métis people who make Alberta their home today.
