Research

Charlotte Rulkens is a Research Associate in the Replicating a Rembrandt Study project, that is part of the larger Epistemic Progress in the University. The purpose of this subproject is to explore the possibilities and limitations of replication in the humanities by aiming to execute a replication study within the field of art history.

As a curator at the Mauritshuis, Charlotte contributed to the research in preparation of various publications and exhibitions like Slow Food: Still lifes of the Golden Age, National Trust: Dutch painting from British Country Houses and In Full Bloom. She furthermore curated the exhibition Rembrandt and the Mauritshuis and published about an eighteenth Century planetarium that is part of the Six Collection in Amsterdam. Her research interests are widespread and were recently focused on still life painting, collecting history, attribution research, methodology, technical art history and Rembrandt.
