Exhibition Tour: Imagine Me and You

Join exhibition curator Talitha Maria G. Schepers on Sunday, Aug. 18 for an in-depth exploration of the exhibition "Imagine Me and You: Dutch and Flemish Encounters with the Islamic World, 1450–1750." Discover what prompted Netherlandish artists to include everyday objects from the Islamic world, like textiles and carpets, in their paintings. Why did Rembrandt copy a Mughal painting? And what role did the tulip—a symbol of the Netherlands—play in Habsburg-Ottoman diplomacy?

Please check in with museum staff at the Visitor Services desk in the Calderwood Courtyard to request to join the tour. Tours are limited to 18 people and are available on a first-come, first-served basis; registration is not required.
