During your internship, you will be part of the Paintings & Frames Conservation team. The Rijksmuseum’s dynamic and diverse Conservation & Science Department is housed in the Ateliergebouw or Studio Building across the street from the Rijksmuseum. In addition to the conservation studios and laboratories of the Rijksmuseum, the building hosts the conservation training program of the University of Amsterdam, the Scientific Department of the Cultural Heritage Agency of the Netherlands (RCE) and the Netherlands Institute of Conservation, Art and Science (NICAS). The strong collaboration between conservators, scientific researchers and art historians makes for an interdisciplinary and inspiring environment. You will have the opportunity to attend regular talks organized by these institutions.

The studio would like to offer the intern insight into the daily practice of a paintingsconservator in a large and dynamic museum in The Netherlands. The intern will work alongside the paintings conservators to monitor the condition of the collection, preparing paintings for loans, writing condition reports, (de-) installing exhibitions, and assisting with other ongoing (research) projects. There is also the opportunity to carry out treatment of a painting, including performing in-depth scientific research into its materials, technique and condition.

Most members of the studio are occupied with Operation Night Watch. Depending on the phase of treatment the intern can assist with this project. Operation Night Watch is a project launched in July 2019 to conduct in-depth research into the painting technique and condition of Rembrandt's masterpiece and its treatment
