The Dutch founded the city of New Amsterdam on Manhattan Island 400 years ago in 1626. In Europe at that same time they were revolutionizing art, with Rembrandt and his contemporaries turning a keen eye to the world around them. This exhibition uses their paintings to help us envision life in the little Dutch settlement that would become New York. Let the Old Masters introduce you to New Amsterdam. Old Masters, New Amsterdam is on view May 1, 2026 - August 30, 2026.
