In the Dutch town of Laren is one of my favorite museums: The Singer museum. I often come here, since it is not even half an hour by car from my house.
The American couple Anna and William Singer moved to this lovely town which housed a lot of artists and built a villa there.
William was a painter himself and they had a lot of contacts with artists from all over the world. They collected art and their collection is now the foundation of the Singer museum.
Recently it has been renovated and a new theater has been built alongside the villa and usually it has amazing exhibitions.
There is also a very beautiful garden, designed by Dutch landscape architect Piet Oudolf. There are also many artworks in this garden, forming the perfect combination of nature and art.
Last time I was there, I walked around in the garden, and took a few photographs with my phone. Just enough to get an impression.

I can see why you go there so often. It's charming. And I love those elephants! :)
ReplyDeleteIf I remember correctly, the elephants were part of an art-project. It is all very lovely!
