Gouden Zaal Ingericht

Golden Room Reconstruction

The most beautiful space in the Mauritshuis is the Golden Hall. After the fire of 1704, this reception room was decorated in the then prevailing Louis XIV style. It became an impressive whole with a lot of curling, gilding and beautiful wall and ceiling paintings by the Venetian artist Giovanni Antonio Pellegrini.
