A Day to Remember at the Rijksmuseum September 28, 2016

 
Russell outside the Rijksmuseum

 
Aspiring artists...

 
So many people.
One has to be patient to see the paintings...

 
 

 
The Sampling Officials

 
The Rijksmuseum Research Library is the
largest public art history research library in the
Netherlands. Pierre Cuypers was the architect selected for
designing the Rijksmuseum.

 
 

 
 

 
In the lowest floor of the museum there was a room
where one can make their own renditions of
Rembrandt's art. Some are posted here on the wall.
 

 
Our last dinner before leaving tomorrow!
Good vacation but it's time to go home!

    I recall being in Amsterdam when the Rijksmuseum was being remodeled and Mrs. C. and I were the only ones in the room with The Night Watch. It was wonderful.

    I've had a great time tagging along with you two. What a wonderful trip you've had, but I bet Miss Lucy will be glad to see you.

    Have a safe trip home. Big hug to you both. ♥♥♥

I love comments and will attempt to reply to each one. However, lately I have been getting "Unknown" comments that are linked to some sort of web page. I will never open this sort of comment and will immediately mark as spam. I am not interested in opening something that could be detrimental to my blog security etc. Never have enjoyed hackers! Thanks!
