Judith Leyster, 17th Century Dutch master

[Ilaria Rosselli Del Turco]

Alex, I have seen the show in London and it is truely amazing, especially in the juxtaposition of Hals' and Rembrandt's works on similar subject (guilds portraits and anatomy lesson).
The whole thing is a little sombre and dark, plenty of black coats lightened by exquisit white collars. After coming out of it one needs a little Matisse though, just to freshen the eyes.

Thanks, Ilaria, I will definitely have to see it. And maybe hit the Museum of Modern Art afterwards.
