For the first time ever, a special exhibition on the life and work of the van Limbourg brothers has been devoted to the creators of the world-famous brevaries, Les Très Riches Heures and Les Belles Heures, commissioned by the powerful French duke, Jean de Berry. The ambitious exhibition The Van Limbourg brothers, Nijmegen masters at the French court (1400 - 1416) was the cultural highlight during celebrations in 2005 of the 2000th aniversary of the city of Nijmegen.
