This lavishly illustrated book is an authoritative and perceptive study of Dutch painting from the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries. Seymour Slive focuses on the major artists of the period, analyzing works by Hals, Rembrandt, Vermeer, Jacob van Ruisdael, and others. He discusses the kinds of painting that became Dutch specialties-portraits, genre scenes, landscapes, seascapes, Italianate pictures, architectural painting, and still lifes-as well as traditional biblical and historical subjects painted by artists of the period. He also examines patronage and trends of art theory, criticism, and collecting. This book replaces the classic section on painting in Dutch Art and Architecture: 1600-1800, jointly written by Slive and Jakob Rosenberg in the 1960s. Slive has completely rewritten and expanded the original text, taking into account his own and other recent scholarship on Dutch painting as well as new archival finds, technical analyses of paintings made by conservators and scientists, and significant pictures that have been discovered. The number of illustrations has doubled, and the result is a book that will immediately establish itself as the new standard work on this great period of painting.

Very Good. Inscribed by Seymour Slive on front end page. Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Edges scuffed. Small markings and stamp on front end page, else unmarked. viii, 378 pages, plates: illustrations, 29 cm. "Seymour Slive (1920-2014) an honorary member of HNA, was the first art historian trained in the United States who specialized in seventeenth-century Dutch art. He received his undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Chicago, where he studied with the scholar of Italian sculpture Ulrich Middeldorf. His dissertation, written long before anyone put together the words 'reception' and 'history, ' examined Rembrandt's critical reputation from his lifetime through the early eighteenth century. It was published in 1953 as Rembrandt and His Critics, 1630-1730. Slive remained engaged with Rembrandt for the rest of his life. One of his last publications, a study of Rembrandt's drawings organized by subject, as they were classified in the 1656 inventory of the artist's possessions, appeared in 2009. Never one to shy away from studying the major figures in the field, in addition to pursuing his interest in Rembrandt Slive was the leading authority on Frans Hals and Jacob van Ruisdael. As early as 1962 he wrote the catalogue entries for a Hals exhibition in Haarlem."-HISTORIANS OF NETHERLANDISH ART. This is an oversized or heavy book, which requires additional postage for international delivery outside the US.
