Rijksmuseum: The Building, the Collection and the Outdoor Gallery

Patrick Spijkerman

The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam is more beautiful than it has ever been. The original interior has been recovered under the direction of Cruz y Ortis, so that architecture and décor once again form a coherent whole. This beautiful richly illustrated book - which includes maps and many photographs of the interior, illustrations, and views of the building - takes you on an amazing journey through the architectural highlights of the Rijksmuseum, the highlights of the collection - including Rembrandt, Vermeer, and Van Gogh - and out into the beautiful garden.

The book is also published in Dutch Rijksmuseum: Het gebouw, de collectie en de groene buitenzaal, ISBN 978 90 8964 899 0
