Otterloo!


Young Girl in Profile, by Jan Lievens



If the dog days of summer are too hot for you, chill out at the Peabody Essex Museum for an encore showing of Dutch and Flemish masterpieces called Golden: Dutch and Flemish masters. The impressive exhibit of paintings, furniture and decorative arts are from the private collection of Rose-Marie and Eijk Otterloo (of Marblehead!), and includes nearly 70 paintings from those rock stars of light, such as the Bruegals, Franz Hals, Rembrandt, and yes, even Vermeer. The show is only there until the end of August, so hurry up and visit!

Suddenly I have the song Waterloo, by Abba, playing in my head!

Otterloo!... Promise to love you for ever more...
Otterloo!...  Couldn't escape if I wanted to...
