Master Strokes highlights the diverse interests and innovative drawing techniques of 17th-century Golden Age artists, contrasting and comparing the subjects and styles of artists working in the northern Dutch Republic and Spanish-controlled southern Netherlands during the 17th century.The exhibition also explores the influence of 16th-century artists on their Golden Age successors and the enduring impact of 17th-century artists on Dutch and Flemish art in the following centuries.

Master Strokes is the first exhibition to present this remarkable and hitherto little-known collection to a wide audience.
