The Baroque Hall (Room 4)
The Baroque Hall (Room 4)
During the 17th century, artists abandoned the strict order of the Renaissance for a more expansive, expressive and sensual art. Rubens, perhaps the most prominent of Baroque painters, is represented with two monumental paintings: The Adoration of the Magi and Henry IV of France at the Siege of Amiens. In the gallery and the adjoining staircase there are also works by, among others, Jacob Jordaens, David Teniers, an image of a saint by the Spanish mystic Francisco de Zurbarán and two portraits by the Swedish court painter David Klöcker Ehrenstrahl.
