Duo Rembrandt
The two elegant main characters from De Nachtwacht (‘the Nightwatch’) saw how Rembrandt earned his money with painting.
In his footsteps, they search for suitable models and the right light for their flash paintings.
With skill, surprising compositions are eternalized.
Group portraits are their speciality.
Duo Nachtwacht
They are the flanks of the Nightwatch.
Now they accurately handle the brush, and search for the centre of attention.
Duo Vermeer
Het Melkmeisje (‘The Milkmaid’) and The Girl with a Pearl Earring. In huge size.
Long lovely ladies with a curly drawing style, filled with emotion.
Nachtwacht parade
This moving circus company brings the painting ‘De Nachtwacht’ alive.
Our parade consists of live musicians, acrobats and stilt walkers. The group divides in duos regularly, to entertain as many people as possible. Surprising commands and musical signals are made everywhere to call people to action.
Duo Marching Musicians
The atmosphere of the Dutch 17th century rolled in cheerful marching music. All kinds of musical signals will challenge the audience to move or join in.
Duo Van Gogh
This farmer couple has changed the fields for the paintbrushes that Van Gogh painted them with.
Used as they are to large tools, their style is a bit unrefined.
Post-impressionism to the max.
