Summary

The recent wave of renovations of Netherlandish museums inspired this volume of the "Nederlands Kunsthistorisch Jaarboek," which focuses on display as a key approach to the visual culture of the Netherlands from the early modern period to the present. The volume opens with a critical discussion of the newly reinstalled Rijksmuseum. It includes analyses of the depiction of aggressive interactions with artworks, the ways in which meaning is mobilised by changing displays of paintings by Rubens, and the politics of display in a seventeenth-century palace and in Fascist and De Stijl exhibitions. Display in domestic spaces, including Rembrandt s house and a museum of Asiatic art, is considered, as are the implications of plinths and curtains.
