"The art of the Dutch republic in the seventeenth century includes some of the most familiar and best-loved examples of European painting: exquisite still-life studies, tranquil interiors, robust portraits and rowdy tavern scenes. In this account, Mariet Westermann describes this art as it was experienced by the people of the period and as it appears to us today. She examines the major themes of Dutch art, including the growth and expression of national identity, the celebration and examination of the individual through portraiture, and the changing status of artists themselves."--BOOK JACKET.
Dem modernen Hochglanzporträt ließe sich wohl nachsagen, dass es mehr einer Phantasmagorie denn der Wirklichkeit entspricht. Inszenierung und Retusche sind die Werkzeuge dieser Gaukelei.

Explores the resilience of the Dutch Republic in the face of preindustrial climate change during the Little Ice Age.

A Cold Welcome tells the story of this crucial period, taking us from Europe’s earliest expeditions in unfamiliar landscapes to the perilous first winters in Quebec and Jamest...
