The display will include nearly 20 paintings by major Dutch masters of the Golden Age – Pieter de Hooch, Gabriel Metsu, Frans van Mieris the Elder, Richard Brakenburg, Pieter Janssens Elinga, along with furniture and arts and crafts objects made of gold, silver, porcelain, and glass, all of which constituted an essential part of a burgher’s house and an object of their owners’ passion and vanity. The exhibits will come from the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts and other Russian and Western European museums and private collections.
