Painting as a highlight
Works by Ter Borch, Ter Brugghen and others take their place in a civic collection. Alongside the artist’s name, look at the subject, the dating and the route by which the work reached Deventer.
Coins and trade
Coins and medals connect civic power to everyday economic life. Compare the image, the text and the wear, and ask where and by whom the piece was struck.
The weigh house
The building was designed for weighing and trade. Note the height, the floors and the access, and consider how heavy goods and oversight shaped the architecture.
