National Gallery of Art lends historic works to the Figge Art Museum

The Figge Art Museum in Davenport, Iowa, has opened an exhibition titled "The Golden Age: Featuring Northern European Artworks from the Collection of the National Gallery of Art," featuring 10 masterworks from 1537 to 1700 on loan from the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. The show includes paintings by Lucas Cranach the Elder, Anthony van Dyck, Frans Hals, and Louis Vallée, and runs through April 4, 2027. The Figge is one of ten small to mid-size museums selected for the National Gallery's "Across the Nation" initiative, which sends key works to institutions nationwide to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States.
