Download or read book The Flemish Primitives written by Musées royaux des beaux-arts de Belgique and published by Brepols Publishers. This book was released on 1996 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The third volume includes a final group of preeminent, identified artists from the period of transition at the end of the 15th and the beginning of the 16th century. Artistic production at this time was still rooted in late medieval thought, yet more and more seized with new renaissance developments, and at a permanent state of ferment with constantly changing needs of society. The catalogue deals with correspondingly complex issues of interpretation through the works of Hieronymus Bosch, Albrecht Bouts, Gerard David, Colijn de Coter and Goossen van der Weyden. It comprises a technical, stylistic and iconographical investigation of seventeen paintings on the basis of a scientific research method, which has been fully established over the years. The authors have been able to adjust various attributions and interpretations. At the same time most valuable discoveries have been made with regard to the provenance of some work belonging to the Albrecht Bouts and Colijn de Coter Groups.

Download or read book Rubens Van Dyck Jordaens et les autres written by Sabine van Sprang and published by Hazan. This book was released on 2012 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The exhibition features a selection of forty-one paintings from the 'Golden Age' of the former Southern Netherlands, and covers all the important areas in which the artists from this region excelled: history painting, portraiture, genre painting, still life and landscapes. Some of the works are recent acquisitions; a number have never been exhibited in Paris. Among the principal pieces is Rubens's The Miracles of St. Benedict, an unfinished painting entirely by Rubens's hand and a fine example of his virtuosity. Also in the exhibition is Jacob Jordaens's boisterous The King Drinks and, to remind us that he was not just a painter of boisterous scenes, his imposing Portrait of a Woman. This hangs opposite two portraits by Anthony van Dyck one of which is the great masterpiece Portrait of Father Jean Charles della Faille. Landscapes, genre painting and still life are represented by the painters who did most to ensure their success. Foremost among them are Paul Bril, Lucas van Uden, David Teniers the Younger, Frans De Momper, Jan Fyt and Abraham Brueghel. The exhibition gives due importance, too, to painters who are less well known today but who in their time enjoyed great popularity. Cornelis Schut, Gerard de Lairesse, Jacob van Oost the Elder, Jan Siberechts, Gillis van Tilborch and David Ryckaert all belong in this category. An item of great interest is a canvas by the Brussels born painter Karel Philips Spierinck A bacchanal with two fauns looking at drunken Silenus, with putti cavorting. It is a recent acquisition of the Old Paintings section of the Royal Museums and is one of the first works to show the influence of Nicolas Poussin. This beautiful exhibition at the Musée Marmottan Monet of some of the finest Flemish Baroque painting ensures that a far wider public can enjoy these unique masterpieces from the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium. Over the years the Royal Museums of Belgium have assembled an exceptional collection of paintings, one of the largest in Europe, from the regions that make up their history. The exhibition is the first in a partnership agreement between the Musée Marmottan Monet and the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium. The aim is to increase the visibility of their respective collections through temporary exhibitions that highlight a particular aspect of the collection. The next exhibition will be Claude Monet and Japonism in Brussels, then in Paris (2014 and 2015)."--Codart.nl.

Download or read book Anonymous Masters written by Musées royaux des beaux-arts de Belgique and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fifth volume examines all the works painted by anonymous masters. Most works of the 15th and early 16th centuries are not signed. Several of these works have not proved possible to attribute to a known painter or to a master with a provisional name. These works, labelled as anonymous, have been little studied until now, because they are in general thought to be of lesser quality, and because researchers have prioritised the study of more important masters. It is, however, becoming increasingly apparent that these reflect the ongoing production of the time in the Southern Netherlands. Beside the fact that these paintings represent the themes that enjoyed a certain popularity at the time, their study opens perspectives onto the socio-economic context and workshop practice. These paintings could be destined for a broad market and betray different working methods allowing for swift execution in several copies. Furthermore, two of these anonymous works, dating from around 1400 or a little bit later, rank amongst the rare representatives of pictorial production in the Southern Netherlands prior to the technical innovations introduced by the Flemish Primitives. This production is by convention called pre-Eyckian painting.
