Brief aan G.M.C. Hooft, secretaris van de commissie van de Tentoonstelling van Levende Meesters in Den Haag Possibly 1841 - 1844

This handwritten note, likely written in 1841 or 1844, is a document from Pieter George Westenberg, a Dutch artist, to G.M.C. Hooft, the secretary of the exhibition "Living Masters" held in The Hague. The text describes the artist's intention to attend the exhibition and shows a brief conversation between the two men about Westenberg's work. The document is part of the Rijksmuseum collection and provides a glimpse into the inner workings of the Dutch art world in the 19th century. It is a fascinating artifact for those interested in the history of Dutch art and the lives of artists in that period.
