We’ll explore familiar names like Rembrandt while discussing lesser known items like 17th century dollhouses and Vermeer’s portrait of domesticity, “The Milkmaid.” There’s even a fascinating 19th century library containing more stories than we could ever tell. By the end, you’ll have a good overview of the museum’s collection and you may even know how to pronounce its name correctly. Highlights Include: (if artwork is not on loan or being restored etc.)  Rembrandt masterworks The Night watch  The Jewish Bride  The Syndics of the Drapers' Guild  Vermeer's The Milkmaid  19th century library  17th century dollhouses, globes, ship replica, and Delft ceramics
