About This Event

A talk called 'Meet Rembrandt: A slow looking experience' will occur at Upton House and Gardens on July 31, 2026, starting at 11:00. The event focuses on Rembrandt van Rijn’s Self-portrait in a Feathered Bonnet from 1635, which is held by the National Trust. Admission to this talk requires payment.

Rembrandt van Rijn’s Self-portrait in a Feathered Bonnet (1635) is one of the great treasures of the National Trust’s collections and, for the first time, it’s on a national tour, enabling more people than ever before to ‘meet Rembrandt’ for a special guided slow looking experience.

Did you know, the average person spends just 8 seconds looking at a work of art? Slow looking provides a welcome break from the need to be busy and efficient, so give yourself permission to relax and take your time looking at this masterpiece with a free audio guide. What will you discover when you spend a little more time with Rembrandt?
