Other title from CD-ROM

Gerard de Lairesse (1641-1711) wrote a booklet on the art of drawing (1701) and a manual on painting (1707). The latter, the "Groot Schilderboek", is the subject of this study by art historian Lyckle de Vries. This book may change our appreciation of Dutch seventeenth-century painting since it shifts the reader's attention from art theory and iconology to practical studio work: designing and making paintings in an attempt to create beauty and quality. With his fascinating reevaluation of De Lairesse's book and a helpful translation, De Vries offers a treasuretrove of information not easily found elsewhere. This book is indispensable for art historian, for students and teachers of art schools, and those with an interest in technical research and restoration. NB: the English translation of the first volume of the "Schilderboek" is a working translation by the author and is included on a CD-rom or can be downloaded from our site

Includes bibliographical references (p. 218-222) and indexes
