Ask anything

  • Robyn Spencer asked

    I am hoping to get a picture of the 14th century Broche/spindle in your collection:
    https://www.boijmans.nl/index.php/en/collection/artworks/54167/spindle
    Your online search says 'image not available' but I have seen the image on another website:
    https://www.jessicagrimm.com/blog/the-brochebrodsebretsche
    so it existed at some point!
    Many thanks
    Robyn Spencer

    Hi Robyn, thanks for your question. I will send you the jpeg in a separate email and will ask my colleague why the image is not online. In case you need a hi res image instead of a jpeg, please contact my other colleague at images@boijmans.nl. Kind regards, Els
