Book Netherlandish Art in the Rijksmuseum  1400 1600

Download or read book Netherlandish Art in the Rijksmuseum 1400 1600 written by Henk Van Os and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The period from 1400 to 1600 was a fascinating one in Netherlandish art and history, encompassing the late Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Iconoclasm, the Dutch Revolt, and the northern cities' conversion to the Protestant faith, which put an end to the previously close ties between north and south. This handsome book presents an overview of the period by means of a selection of one hundred works of art in different media taken from the unparalleled collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Eminent authorities place these works in their historical context and discuss their origins, significance, and distinguishing features. The result is an authoritative history of fifteenth and sixteenth-century Netherlandish art. The book is arranged chronologically in three sections, each opening with a brief introduction that sketches the historical and art-historical outlines of the period and each including reproductions and discussions of the works of art. In addition, longer essays in the beginning of the book address such issues as how the function and meaning of works of art change when they become part of a museum; how the picture of Netherlandish art presented by the Rijksmuseum has evolved over the two centuries of its existence; how the works of art came into being; and how and for whom they were made and traded. Although the book focuses on works from the Rijksmuseum, it includes illustrations of key works from other sources as well. This book is the first in a four-part series about Dutch art that will be invaluable for visitors to the Rijksmuseum and for art lovers everywhere.

Book Still life Paintings from the Netherlands  1550 1720

Download or read book Still life Paintings from the Netherlands 1550 1720 written by Alan Chong and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This stunning book presents the very best still lifes produced in the Netherlands at the height of the genre, from the early beginnings in the 16th century, with Pieter Aertsen and Joachim Beuckelaer, to the late highlights in the 18th century, with Rachel Ruysch and Jan van Huysum. Despite the popularity and abundance of flower paintings in modern collections, the book includes a wide range of subjects and styles, from the simple to the complex, the charmingly small to the opulent and extravagant, and from flowers to hunting still lifes or objects in the corner of a painter's studio, along with an occasional trompe l'oeil. The visual delights of still-life painting have a strong historical context. Collectors and connoisseurs purchased them because of their realism, visual appeal, and relevance to their own lives. Poets praised the wonders of still-life paintings and evoked the power of painting to transcend the seasons and the passing of time. Contemporary observers lauded the expensive and elaborate objects often on display. The book therefore considers the visual achievement of the Netherlandish still life painters in the context of contemporary reactions to pictures, art theory, and issues of patronage. Numerous artists were tempted to try their hand at still life, drawn by a new and enchanting genre that allowed an artist to create independent worlds of inanimate objects on the flat surface of a picture -- imaginary realms that had an exceptional following among connoisseurs of the time. These images continue to work their magic on present-day art lovers.
