The doll's house of Petronella Oortman

Omschrijving

Curious about what life was like in the Dutch Golden Age? The seventeenth century dolls' house of Petronella Oortman (1656-1716) was a perfect copy of her own beautifully furnished Amsterdam home. The dolls' house, one of the highlights of the Rijksmuseum's collection, gives us a glimpse into everyday life - as if we were peeking through the windows of a house from the period. This book by art historian Karin Braamhorst and graphic designer Marlies Visser shares with us the fascinating details of Petronella's dolls' house.
