Physical exhibitions
Bert Cornelius was world-famous in Groningen for illustrating the Mussengang serial, which appeared on the back cover of UKrant every week from August 1984 until June 1995. This exhibition presents a selection of 40 Mussengang illustrations. We have chosen the most beautiful, most controversial, and most characteristic illustrations, but this selection represents only a fraction of Cornelius’ vast oeuvre.
The exhibition entitled Passion for collecting, a century of Dutch picture books from our private collection (1920-2020) showcases a selection of picture books published in the Netherlands over the last hundred years that have been added to the Library’s collection.
