Museum Snijders & Rockoxhuis Opens in Antwerp

On February 24, 2018 the Museum Snijders & Rockoxhuis opened to the public. The museum consists of the houses of two seventeenth-century Antwerp celebrities: Nicolaas Rockox, burgomaster of Antwerp, and Frans Snijders, a painter of still lifes, animals and hunting scenes. The permanent exhibition space will evoke the everyday world of the 17th-century domestic interior, drawing from the museum’s own rich collection of 16th and 17th-century art, supplemented by long-term loans from the collections and reserves of Belgian museums (the Royal Museum of Fine Arts, the Maagden Museum, MAS, the Vleeshuis Museum and the Rubens House in Antwerp, the Groeninge Museum, Bruges, the Royal Museums of Fine Arts in Brussels and M Museum, Leuven), museums abroad (Musée de Flandre, Cassel, Museumslandschaft Hessen, Kassel, Museum der bildenden Künste, Leipzig, Centraal Museum Utrecht, Liechtensteinmuseum, Vienna, Prado, Madrid and Frey-Näpflin Stiftung Stans) and private collections (including the Phoebus Collection and the Lottery Museum).
