RM24004 – Uylenburgh art studio
I will be taking you back to swirly Amsterdam of the 17th century. Migration is is deeply anchored in Amsterdam's DNA. Since the 16th century, thousands of newcomers settled every year, whether refugees of faith, or persons in search of a better life. This migration is the driving force behind the enormous diversity, that still characterizes Amsterdam today.
How did Rembrandt view these newcomers? In this episode of the podcast, I wonder how migrants and their descendants are reflected in Rembrandt's work. Spoiler alert: I am walking seven-league boots through the interesting history of migration to the Netherlands and Amsterdam. At the end of our high-speed journey, I will briefly look at the tympanum on the front façade of the current Royal Palace on Dam Square in Amsterdam – a glorious expression of urban pride. Can migrants and their descendants recognize themselves in it?
1. For a few years I did extensive research, leading to my book of Rembrandt’s Money. The legal and financial life of an artist-entrepreneur in 17th century Holland. The first edition of the book Rembrandt’s Money, published in autumn 2021. It is nearly sold out.
