Video: National Gallery of Art, Washington
Posted by Adam Busiakiewicz
Continuing on the theme of how galleries and museums are continuing to share their collections during the current lock down, here is a video from the National Gallery of Art in Washington.
It shows Northern European paintings curator Betsy Wieseman unravelling a rather dashing picture by Johannes Cornelisz Verspronck of Andries Stilte as a Standard Bearer (1640).
The NGA are currently running a virtual tour series on their Facebook page, highlighting one work of art from each of their rooms every day.
Never before has it been so easy for videos of this kind to be made. Click, point and go (whilst keeping at least 2 metres apart, in our current climate).
