PRSRT STD U.S. Postage PAID Dear Members and Friends of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, BURLINGTON, VT PERMIT NO. 601 G EMS OF N ORTHERN E UROPE Major cities in Northern Europe have had a dazzling history. Trade, freedom, and the occasional dynastic rule combined to produce great wealth, and perhaps more surprisingly, a love of the arts and Hamburg, Hannover & The Hague the garden. Traveling with us is art historian Olivier Bernier whose lectures at The Metropolitan Museum of Art delight an enthusiastic audience. Mr. Bernier’s memories and experiences of travel to Northern Europe date back to trips with his grandparents, and he has designed this trip to include some of his favorite places. Hamburg, one of the great Hanseatic cities, ﬂourished for centuries and even the destruction of World War II served in the end to rejuvenate this bustling city. Its museums are justly famous; the restoration and conversion of its waterfront are great examples of post-war Renaissance. Hannover has a very different history. Its dynasty built palaces and gardens before it was taken over by the English throne. As a result, this city has interesting architecture and two fascinating museums, as well as a beautifully restored Baroque garden. On our way to The Hague, the Kröller-Müller Museum with its extraordinary collections of Van Gogh and Mondrian will offer the perfect introduction to the almost limitless art treasures of the Netherlands. The Hague itself has the many masterpieces of the newly reopened Mauritshuis GEMS OF NORTHERN EUROPE and those of the Gementee Museum. It is also a walking city of great charm, where the Dutch sense of Hamburg, Hannover & The Hague June 5 to 16, 2016 order comes together with a keen aesthetic sense. An excursion will take us to Amsterdam and the splendid Rijksmuseum. Of course, Holland is not just about great art. Centuries of cultivation have produced a uniquely photo courtesy of German National Tourist Board (GNTO) beautiful landscape which our drives will enable us to enjoy.
