Leiden University lecturer and Rijksmuseum curator Alexander Dencher will bring together academics, curators and heritage professionals for a series of lectures that will cover various aspects of the eighteenth-century interior in the Netherlands and Europe.
Various speakers

The study of the interiors created in this period reveals the aesthetic and intellectual interests of their owners, which were also reflected in the pictures, furnitures and textiles collected to fill these spaces.
