"We present to your attention a new line of books on the history of painting in countries that have made the most significant contribution to the development of world art.
The series is opened by an album dedicated to Dutch painting....
This unique publication will allow you to find in one place everything important about the great heritage of Dutch masters, as it includes three artistic schools at once: early Dutch painting (Jan van Eyck, Bosch, Bruegel, etc.) and its two branches - Flemish (Rubens, Van Dyck, Snijders, etc.) and Dutch (Hals, Vermeer, Rembrandt), clearly demonstrating their similarities and differences.
The album will introduce you not only to the biographies of 22 artists and their famous paintings but also to interesting details that make Dutch painting unique. Find out why in the paintings of Dutch masters, people are sometimes replaced by monkeys, what gave rise to the genre of “monkey paintings”; why Vermeer’s famous “Girl with a Pearl Earring” is not an ordinary portrait but a special type of painting - “troni”; why the Dutch loved winter landscapes so much...
Give yourself the opportunity to enjoy the masterpieces of Dutch painting: from the luxurious colorfulness of early Dutch examples to the grandeur of Flemish Baroque and Dutch Realism!
