Afternoon Symposium on a Willem van de Velde I pen-painting Dutch artist Willem van de Velde I (1611-1693) developed the subgenre of “pen-paintings” in the 17th-century. These astonishingly detailed works, executed with fine brushes and quill pens, are rare, particularly in American collections. Davis curators were delighted to discover a superlative example tucked away in storage, and have pursued conservation treatment to restore its condition. This symposium features presentations by Associate Curator, Claire Whitner, on the painting’s history ; Rhona MacBeth, the Eijk and Rose-Marie van Otterloo Conservator and Head of Paintings Conservation at the MFA Boston, who conducted the technical study and treatment ; and Daniel Finamore, Russell W. Knight Curator of Maritime Art and History at the Peabody Essex Museum.
