Dutch Art
Two Rembrandts Included in Benefit Exhibit on Campus
Interest is being shown among patrons of fine arts in a collection of 17th century Dutch masters to be exhibited at the Elizabeth Holmes Fisher gallery of the University of Southern Califomia from July 10 through the month of August.
Arranged as a Holland war relief benefit, the display of 35 authenticated paintings includes two Rembrandts and other notable masters from private collectors and is said to represent a value of over $400,000. PREVIEW JULY 10
A formal preview will open the exhibition on July 10 from 8:30 to 11 p.m. with owners of the collections serving as hosts and hostesses, according to Miss Winifred Poingdestre, gallery curator.
The benefit is affiliated with the Queen Wilhelmina fund of New York in cooperation with the American Red Cross.
Portraits, landscapes, genre, and religious themes are represented in the group.
REMBRANDTS FEATURED
Featured are the two Rembrandts, “The Portrait of a Man” loaned by Mr. and Mrs. David Loew and “Head of Christ” from the collection of Thomas Mitchell.
Feter de Hoogh and Gerard Ter-borch are represented among those offered by Allan Balch. The works of Comelis Decker, Jan van Goyan, and Jacob van Ruisdael are also included.
“The collection represents the 17th century period when Dutch artists sensed the highest cultural period of their nation; depicting vigorous burghers, lively peasants, and well kept homes with an effectiveness that could have happened in no other land or time,” says E. C. van Oudermeulen, secretary of the Holland War relief fund.
