The Kremer Collection is owned and managed by the Fondation Aetas Aurea (FAA). The collection comprises 17th century Dutch and Flemish Old Masters. The goals of the FAA are:

• to promote art in general and in particular Netherlandish art
• to maintain and improve (knowledge of) the collection through acquisitions, participation in research and exhibitions, and its restoration program.
• to make its collection known to a wider public through an active, international loan program
• to produce comprehensive catalogues of its collection. A first milestone was the publication of Dutch and Flemish Old Masters from the Kremer Collection in 2002.

In July 2008 new, updated catalogues were published in German and Dutch.

OLD MASTERS

The collection presently (as of July 2009) contains 53 paintings and copperplates by Dutch and Flemish masters. Many great figures are represented, including Hendrick ter Brugghen, Gerrit Dou, Frans Hals and Rembrandt (4 works). For a full list of artists, click here. What makes the collection in part so special, is the large number of images with an intriguing story behind them.
