Dating from the 16th to the 17th centuries, the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium in Brussels is hosting an exhibition of over 90 drawings from many of the nation’s most celebrated artists. In addition to the drawings, a number of paintings, prints, stained glass pieces, and tapestries are included in the exhibition.
 
“From Floris to Rubens” will also feature outstanding landscapes from Hendrick Goltzius and Cornelis De Vos, Pieter Stevens, and Adriaen Frans Boudewijns. As exciting as the names is the fact that many of the works on view have never been shown to the public before. The 90 drawings included in the exhibition are from a private Belgian collection.
 
The exhibition will hang through May 15. To learn more, visit the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
