A face as a starting point
With a portrait, you can begin without knowing who is depicted. How is the person positioned, and where does your eye fall first? Then read the explanatory text and notice what it adds to your first impression.
Landscape and bloom
Other Schatkamers focus on landscape and flowers. Compare the way space is built up with a work from the portrait presentation. The same museum visit can therefore call for different kinds of attention, from a distant horizon to a small detail.
Silver close up
The silver collection invites you to look at form and use together. For an object, ask yourself what it had to do, and how the decoration responds to that. Check the current programme if you are coming specifically for one part of the collection.
Before you go
The museum is normally closed on Monday; exceptions and sometimes shorter hours apply around public holidays.
