Power and Grace: Van Tuinen’s Farewell Exhibition @ The Morgan

Peter Paul Rubens, Seated Male Youth, drawing. The Morgan Library & Museum

19 January – 28 April 2018 | New York

Drawings played a crucial role in the artistic practice of the three giants of the Flemish Baroque, Peter Paul Rubens (1577–1640), Anthony van Dyck (1599–1641), and Jacob Jordaens (1593–1678). This exhibition in the Morgan Library & Museum, New York, features the greatest works on paper by the artists in the museum’s collection, as well as a few key loans from local collections. The show highlights the distinctive graphic styles of each artist and their influence on one another. The Morgan is particularly well-suited to tell this fascinating story as its holdings of Rubens, Van Dyck, and Jordaens are unparalleled in the United States. This is Ilona van Tuinen’s last show as a curator at the Morgan before she heads to the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam.
