Museum Bredius — Attraction in The Hague

Not worth to visit for me. I do not know anything about art. Maybe there is one or two paintings that for me outstands from the rest. I can understand that some of the painters are important in the Netherlands, but old does not mean necessary good.

It is a pity that the collection of drawings (the only thing that I find interesting) is in a one meter wide corridor and half of the lights were off.

Maybe art experts can find interesting things in your museum. I am only a normal person, with little education, and I do not know what is the fun in such a place. I was in another museum during my trip to the Hague, that was a completely different experience, I spent more than two hours and could have spent even more. Also walking around the city, having a cafe, be in the seaside... much more...

Bredius went to study Dutch 17th-century paintings. He visited collections, studied books and archives and became the expert of art.

He was also director of the Mauritshuis in The Hague for twenty years (1889-1909). During his appointment there, he purchased many works for both the museum and his private collection. He lent many of his own purchases to the museum.

His house and his personal collection is on display. It has art from Rembrandt and other famous Dutch painters. It is art that is quirky, unique and sometimes quite cheeky. It is art of high standard that you won't see in museums.

Go to this museum for the unusual art. It is a feast for your eyes! I highly recommend it. There is an audio tour for free with interesting facts and the people working there are friendly...

A truly beautiful museum in the heart of the city of The Hague. It's located opposite a bigger and more famous Maurits Huis but don't miss it when you are in the Hague. A very exciting event has taken place recently: the most important discovery of a Rembrandt in recent times, more than a century after the family Bredius purchased 'Raising of the Cross'. One room in the museum is dedicated to the chronicle of authentication and restoration process of this masterpiece. Also on permanent display: Rembrandt's sketches and various works of an underrated Dutch master, Jan Steen. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Highly...
