With a BA from Sotheby's Institute of Art and an MA in Dutch Baroque Art from London's Courtauld Institute of Art, in 2013, Mariska Beekenkamp-Wladimiroff founded, Art Historical London, offering art lectures, courses, tours, travel and events from London. Over the years, she expanded to events in New York and Amsterdam, and in March, 2020, due to Covid and the cancelation of her in-person lectures and tours, Mariska quickly up-skilled, taking her programming online and worldwide – a marvelous example of how resourceful, and creative we've all had to be over the last two years, navigating the enormous restrictions imposed upon our lives by the pandemic.
