At home in a museum
‘At home in a museum. The story of Henriëtte and Fritz Mayer van den Bergh’ delves deeper into the origins and fascinating history of our museum and its founders, Henriëtte en Fritz Mayer van den Bergh. Author Ulrike Müller outlines the personalities behind the collection, their family background and international network, their passions and their modus operandi. The book, which contains lots of quotes and previously unpublished 19th-century photos, chronicles the Belle Epoque in Antwerp.
