Saints, Sinners, Lovers and Fools: 300 Years of Flemish Masterworks

Saints, Sinners, Lovers, and Fools offers a look into the specific subjects and styles adopted by artists in the Southern Netherlands between the 15th and 17th centuries, providing important connections to the society and culture of the time. Masterpieces on display include works by, among many others, Hans Memling, Jan Gossaert, Jan and Catharina van Hemessen, Peter Paul Rubens, Jacob Jordaens, and Anthony van Dyck. These works depict a rapidly-changing world through unique styles, subjects, and techniques, offering insight into the past and the chance to create parallels to our world today.

Saints, Sinners, Lovers, and Fools is a collaboration with The Phoebus Foundation and introduces U.S. audiences to the Belgium-based foundation's comprehensive 15th- to 17th century Flemish art collection for the first time.
