Museum snow globe depicting Maarten en Oopjen, a famous couple painted by Rembrandt himself.
This special snow globe was created as part of the museum's celebration that both paintings (each person is an individual portrait painting) were purchased together by the Netherlands and France and added to the Rijksmuseum's collection. These paintings are very special and are now being restored before being added to the collection.
Maarten en Oopjen, as they are referred to, have a great history and if you google the names, you'll learn so much more about the background of these two lovers, captured on canvas by Rembrandt himself.
Shake the snow globe and watch the snow drift around them like a wintery day in Amsterdam.
You can now add a personalisation to the base of the globe, a little wish for the recipient or a good luck message. Anything you wish, we'll take care of it. The last photo will show you an example.
