Room 169

Winter and Christmas

1308–1930, Europe, America, Japan, China, Themed room

A room for the quiet season: Avercamp’s fun on the ice, snowbound farms in New England, Hiroshige’s snowy nights and Sisley’s first snow near Fontainebleau. In between, Duccio, Giovanni di Paolo and Carpaccio tell the Christmas story – from the Nativity to the Flight into Egypt.
