This hasn’t happened for over 20 years: a gathering of 22 Dutch masterpieces on display in an exhibition dedicated to National Trust paintings. Such is the demand for each of these important paintings in the UK and abroad that they very rarely venture out together.

Prized Possessions: Dutch Masterpieces From National Trust Houses” at The Holburne Museum in Bath, England, is the exhibition where these Dutch masterpieces meet and are on display through Sept. 16, 2018.
