New light on a old staircase by Ada Elzbieta Grochowska
Chosen Object
I chose the stairs in the Boijmans museum. It fascinated me that the object was placed behind glass what suggest that is it valuable and fragile. On the website of the boijmans van Beuningen museum is stated that it is probably made in 1700 and in the museum it self in 1660 so that raised some questions for me if the museum does not even have the correct dates.
Staircase of a house on the Vijverberg in The Hague,'1700?' Sculptor: Willem van Sundert (Den Haag 1656 - Den Haag 1747) Client: Simon de Brienne (Jouy le Châtel - Den Haag 1707) Material and technology: linden- en eikenhout Object type: trap Dimensio)
