Historically incorrect

This story couldn't be a more inaccurate representation of Dutch society and culture in the Golden Age. They pretty much got everything wrong. Also, the unoriginal story of a girl trapped in an arranged marriage and being seduced by an artist is getting tiresome.

I agree. Just watched the first hour and nearly fell asleep. Most uninteresting cast of actors I’ve ever watched.

I'm not familiar with Dutch society during the Golden Age, what are some of the inaccuracies? I'm not sure if you decided to finish watching it but the artist part had a surprise to it.

I am watching it now.
