Amsterdam/New Amsterdam: the Worlds of Henry Hudson September 15, 2009

'Amsterdam/New Amsterdam: The Worlds of Henry Hudson,' presented in collaboration with the New Netherland Project, Albany, and the National Maritime Museum Amsterdam/Nederlands Scheepvaartmuseum Amsterdam, will employ rare 16th- and 17th-century objects, images, and documents from major American and Dutch collections to bring the transatlantic world to life and reveal how Henry Hudson's epic third voyage of exploration planted the seeds of a modern society that took root and flourished in the New World.
