France in the Golden Age...at the Timkin Museum of Art


Visit the Timkin Museum of Art to see work on loan that depicts France in the Golden Age. The Timkin Museum's Exhibit. The Object Speaks, has been created as a result of the loan of Nicolas Poussin’s The Holy Family Returning to Nazareth from the Cleveland Museum of Art. Poussin’s painting has been generously sent to San Diego in exchange for the Timken’s Rembrandt, Saint Bartholomew, which is part of the major exhibition Rembrandt in America on view in Cleveland until May 28, 2012.

The Timken has arranged for the painting to be shown alongside four paintings by Poussin's contemporaries. Take the time to visit the museum to see this great exhibit.

The Museum Website has details about two special events in connection with the exhibit. One is on March 14th at 12:30 and the other March 29th at 12:30.
