 October 2011), and thought it a very interesting exhibition. Its not 
large (just two rooms and 40 or so paintings) but has an excellent 
audioguide, and is well worth a visit for lowlandophiles in/passing 
through London.</span></p><p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D"> </span></p><p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">I
 am not sure whether I am disappointed that so much space (not  a lot, 
but quite a lot) was given to Dutch artists painting Italian landscapes 
(or Italianate landscapes).  It is feature that it is handled well in 
the interpretation, and is a product of the fact that this is an 
exhibition from a family collection (a series of individual, 
genetically-related, collectors), rather than a assemblage of paintings 
to follow a particular narrative.  And on the other hand, I didn’t 
notice anything about the English/Dutch relationship at the level of the
 family, or the nation.  </span></p><p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D"> </span></p><p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">There
 are some wonderful, wonderful paintings.  Aelbert Cuyp’s “Page with Two
 Horses”, and Jan van der Heyden’s “A country House on the Vliet near 
Delft” are the ones that will stay with me.</span></p><p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D"> </span></p><p style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal">
