Denver Art Museum Welcomes Rembrandt as a Guest of Honor from the National Gallery of Art

Treasures from the nation’s art collection have landed in Denver as part of commemorations for the 250th anniversary of the U.S.

The Denver Art Museum (DAM) announces that two key artworks from the National Gallery of Art’s (NGA) collection will be on display at DAM for two years.

At the DAM, Rembrandt’s A Woman Holding a Pink and Portrait of Rembrandt by the artist’s workshop is now on view, through Feb. 6, 2027, in the European Art Before 1800 galleries on the 6th level of the museum’s Martin Building and will be included with general admission.

Rembrandt van Rijn (1606–1669), one of the most celebrated artists of the 1600s, excelled in the genre of portraiture, which flourished at the time in the northern Netherlands and the Dutch Republic. Dutch artists challenged traditional portrait
conventions by capturing the subject’s personality and their individuality, instead of solely focusing on their economic and social status.
