Reality and Imagination

The Art Institute of Chicago — Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Kimball Collection

Organized by the MFA's Center for Netherlandish Art, this exhibition examines the significant role Jews played in 17th-century Dutch visual culture as patrons, collectors, and subjects of art, particularly in the work of Rembrandt and his circle. It features paintings, prints, and Judaica objects, including rare Dutch silver Torah finials from 1649.
