Download or read book Rembrandt the Universal Artist written by Jean-François Charnier and published by Skira. This book was released on 2022-03-22 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Key works by Rembrandt and Dutch painters from Hals to Vermeer, from a legendary New York collection The Leiden Collection, created by Dr. Thomas S. Kaplan and his wife, Daphne Recanati Kaplan, and based in New York, has assembled over 250 paintings in the past 15 years, including masterpieces by Rembrandt and many of the finest artists from the 17th-century Dutch Golden Age. Surveyed in this volume, the collection has extraordinary depth and breadth with artists working in the city of Leiden in the Netherlands--including early Rembrandt, but also outstanding works by Jan Lievens, Gerrit Dou and Frans van Mieris, who spent their entire lives in their native town. Following Rembrandt, who moved to Amsterdam, the collection also contains a trove of paintings by masters who worked there but also in Utrecht, and Antwerp in the Southern Netherlands, as well as the Haarlem master Frans Hals and the famed Johannes Vermeer of Delft. The collection's primary focus is on portraits, genre subjects and history scenes, paintings in which the human figure (whether singularly or in relationship to others) is the focus. Above all, this richly layered collection, with Rembrandt at its core, allows one to examine the multifaceted relationships that existed among artists working within and beyond the Netherlands throughout the 17th century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A must-have book for anyone interested in Dutch masters and the Dutch Golden Age." – Timeless Travel Magazine Today we marvel at the shimmering light, the detail and hidden significances within the subtle techniques of Vermeer, Rembrandt, Van Eyck, Frans Hals and their compatriots. The luminescent art of the Dutch Masters grew from the bounding confidence of the newly independent Netherlands in the early 1600s. Shed of religious conflict it encouraged a wealthy mercantile class that sought the oceans of the world in search of riches and influence, and a new sensibility in art that cast light across the actions and objects of daily life. The Dutch Masters are characterized by the abandonment of religious patronage, allowing, for the first time, a relentless focus on everyday subjects: the taverns, breakfast tables and living rooms of the newly wealthy and the places they loved to visit. This wonderful new book, also highlighting the work of the pioneering Rachel Ruysch, is the latest addition to Flame Tree’s highly successful Masterworks series.

  • ISBN : 9780740702907
  • Pages : 120 pages

Download or read book Johannes Vermeer written by Christopher Sweet and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Johannes Vermeer is the poetic soul of Dutch art and one of the great vanishing acts in art history. With his death in 1675 and the dispersal of his paintings, Vermeer's artistic and personal identities were virtually eclipsed. But he was rediscovered in the late 19th century and quickly became known as one of the great European masters. Did you know that: Vermeer paid his rent by giving paintings to his landlord? fewer than 40 paintings are attributed to Vermeer? the formality of Vermeer's images masks a deeper, symbolic meaning? some critics still argue that Vermeer's possible use of camera obscura -- the "first camera"--Makes him more of a copyist than a truly original artist?
