3 works across 1 institution

Prague's National Gallery Prague holds 3 works by Anthony van Dyck (1599–1641) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.

Van Dyck transformed portrait painting and defined aristocratic self-presentation for a century. In person, his portraits have a psychological acuity that reproduction tends to reduce to mere elegance — the slight unease in a sitter's gaze, the way a hand is held.

Planning your visit to Prague
