Hyde’s Rembrandt on Loan to Louvre, Detroit Institute of Arts Loans Painting by Rubens

GLEN FALLS, N.Y.- The Hyde Collection announced today that its prized Christ with Folded Arms by Rembrandt van Rijn will be on display in the Louvre in Paris beginning April 18, 2011 as part of a landmark exhibition titled Rembrandt and the Face of Jesus. The Hyde masterwork plays a key role in shaping the thesis of the exhibition, which will be seen in three major museum venues. When the exhibition closes at the Louvre, it travels to the Philadelphia Museum of Art where it will be shown from August through October, 2011 and then to the Detroit Institute of Arts for exhibition beginning in February, 2012. According to David F. Setford, the Hyde’s executive director, “It is seldom that the Museum considers lending this impressive masterwork, but the exhibition being organized by the Louvre offers previously unparalleled opportunities for comparisons with related works from leading museums around the world.&#1
