Book Description
This lavishly illustrated book is an authoritative study of Dutch painting from 1600 to 1800 and covers all the major artists of the period-Hals, Rembrandt, Vermeer and sets them firmly in the wider context of Dutch art. It will immediately establish itself as the new standard work on this great period of painting.

Reader Reviews
This review is from: Dutch Painting, 1600-1800 (The Yale University Press Pelican Histor) (Hardcover)
I could not disagree more with the reviewer below. This is a thorough treatment of Dutch painting that includes both the heavyweights and lesser known figures. It is rarely technical; instead we get Slive's visceral (but authoritative) reactions to individual artists and works. He gives us context, but never overdoes it till the life is drained from the art. As a result, he explains Dutch painting but doesn't lessen the wonder that draws us to the Dutch in the first place. His moving analysis of Frans Hals is a case in point. Should you be uninterested in Slive's text, however, the reproductions he has selected alone justify buying the book. I have not seen a more complete collection from this period available in a single volume.
