The Rijksmuseum is the museum of the Netherlands. A total of 8,000 treasures spread over 80 galleries tell the story of 800 years of Dutch art and history from the Middle Ages to the present day, and of major aspects of European and Asian art. Most of all the Rijksmuseum, as a national institute, is the home of the Dutch Masters of the Golden Age with all-time favorites as Jan Steen, Frans Hals, Johannes Vermeer and Rembrandt van Rijn. Vision and mission: The Rijksmuseum links individuals with art and history. At the Rijksmuseum, art and history take on a new meaning for a broad-based, contemporary national and international audience. The Rijksmuseum keeps, manages, conserves, restores, researches, prepares, collects, publishes, and presents artistic and historical objects, both on its own premises and elsewhere. The Rijksmuseum wants to keep ahead in innovation. A great example of innovation in the Rijksmuseum is the game changing Rijksstudio website. The Rijksstudio project allows, as the first museum in the world, the visitor to browse more than 210,000 super-high resolution art images, copy them, cut and paste them, mash them up, make online collections, share them, and arrange them to make custom objects, for both private and commercial use. In this way, Rijksstudio makes the collection accessible and available for everybody in the world.
