Huis Marseille

TIME : 2016/2/19 2:26:54

This well-curated photography museum stages large-scale, temporary exhibitions, drawing from its own collection as well as hosting travelling shows. Themes might include portraiture, nature or regional photography, spread out over several floors and in a 'summer house' behind the main house.

Huis Marseille is also located in a noteworthy building. The name refers to its original owner in 1665, a French merchant, and the original structure has remained largely intact. It retains some antique touches including the 18th-century fountain in the library, and a painting of Apollo, Minerva and the muses in the garden room.
