2026-10-23 - More labels, more biographies, more to find!

We have added four new labels from the Kunstmuseum Den Haag, including one from Hirsch and two from Mesdames Coche. Labels from Sietzema and Van der Waal are now also available through the Openluchtmuseum.

More biographies have also been written. Some, such as that of De Dom, even include an illustration. All have also been translated.

It is now easier to find new labels, too. Not only are they shown directly below, but you can also find them using the search panel. You can now also filter fashion houses by the availability of biographies and literature.

A major update!
