Rijksmusem Set to Pay €175m for Rembrandt?

December 10 2021

It seems that the Dutch government is ready to assist the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam in purchasing the Rothchild Standard Bearer by Rembrandt for €175m. The museum itself is reportedly ready to put forward €10m while the Dutch State (and taxpayers) will put up the rest. The painting, which has been with the Rothchild family since 1844, will complete a tour of the Netherlands before being hung in the Rijksmuseum.
