The Nationla Museum in Amsterdam
There are over 35 museums in Amsterdam.
The national museum in Dutch is one of the largest museums in all Netherlands.
I often prefer the building than the art. But some of the art attracted me.
Fortunately, I was able to take photos in almost all museums.
They were of old ships and traditional crafts.
I am amusing that the most important picture in the museum is “De Nachtwacht” by Rembrandt Harmensz.The picture seems to have the same scale to our body. The size is 363 centimeters by 437 centimeters. According to the audio guide, he tried all the people in the pictue move and control the lighting and the darkness. That is to say, he made various stories in the picture.
やっぱりヨーロッパの博物館のほうがいいでしょうね。
撮影OKですから。＾＾
日本では珍しいでしょうね。
館内撮影は。
撮影OKということと、入場料が海外のほうが日本より安くていいです。 ヨーロッパは、美術館の数もとてもたくさんあって驚きました。
A museum well worth the visit
Indeed. Thanks a lot.
I like the old ship. One of those old ships transported my great-great-great-etc-grandparents to South Africa!
The old brick buildings are also beautiful. Oh! That reminds me! The renovated Tokyo Station building opened last weekend. You’ll be able to see it when you get back. It’s gorgeous. ^^
I see. thanks for sharing.
Oh, I forgot about Tokyo Station. There must very crowded when it opened. Recently, I have never read the Japanese news.
How beautiful! I wish I could go there too! =)
Thanks much. I also think that is so beautiful.
The building is beautiful. I also like the skylight.
Thanks a lot. The skylight is one of the key for architecture.
Thank you for sharing! This is one museum I wanted to go to, but wasn’t able to. I only saw the outside of the building. Great photos!
Thank you so much. Recently, new museums also opened and it’s worth to visit the museum.
Very nice! I’m glad you are enjoying your time in Europe
Thanks much. I’m happy to hear that. I’ll enjoy the rest of the trip.
It’s interesting the way they have shiny patterned walls as a background for the paintings. Often one sees very plain, matt colours as a backdrop. 35 museums is a lot!
Thank you. I think so. There are many things which I noticed in other countries. It’s very interesting.
Lovely architecture and great pics. You seem to be enjoying Europe.
Thanks! Of course, I’m enjoying Europe.
It looks like a wonderful place to visit! The Art Museum near us is the same way… you are allowed to use a camera (just no flash) except in special exhibits. I think it’s very nice when you are allowed to do that.
Thanks a lot. I can enjoy taking photos a lot. It’s first time to take photos in museums.
With so many museums, it might take you awhile to see them all. The museum seems quite busy. I am glad to see it is still a popular place to visit.
“According to the audio guide” – in English or Japanese language?
Of course, I was able to choose both of them. I chose Japanese guide.
Rembrandt is my favorite artist!!! His lighting technique is awesome!!!
I see. Indeed, it’s awesome.
One of the most famous paintings of the Western world.
Amsterdam is crammed full of art — you will discover the Van Gogh museum, I’m sure. It’s one of my favorites — I wonder what you will think.
Thank you so much. Of course, I know the Van Gogh and want to see the arts. I have to make times to visit the museum.
I remember that one… Enjoyed the visit too.
Thank you.
It’s a very popular museum.
