On September 1st opens one of the event-exhibitions during “Rotterdam 2001”: a retrospective dedicated to the work of Jheronimus Bosch (approx. 1450-1516) at the Boijmans Van Beuningen museum. The details of his life have remained as mysterious as the meaning of his paintings, filled with devils and other fantastic beings that had fired the popular and artistic imagination for centuries. The large Jheronimus Bosch exhibition displays works from various European and American collections, and the museum has succeeded in bringing together about three-quarters of the 25-or-so paintings attributed to Bosch including absolute highlights such as The Ship of Fools from the Louvre and Death of the Miser (National Gallery, Washington), displayed together with virtually the complete drawings. Until November 11th.
