Examining the full repertoire of the Dutch painter Jan Steen, including portraits and self-portraits, religious and mythological scenes, and witty narratives, this work reassesses Steen within the context of 17th-century Netherlandish artistic, literary and cultural movements. The book serves as the catalogue for an exhibition of the works of Jan Steen, opening at the National Gallery of Art, Washington DC, USA, on 28 April 1996, and travelling in September 1996 to the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Aelbert Cuyp

Aelbert Cuyp was one of the foremost Dutch painters and draughtsmen of the 17th century. His prolific artistic career, in which he produced idyllic views of the Dutch countryside, spanned the years between 1640 and 1665, the Golden Age of Dutch painting. At the core of this book and the exhibition it accompanies are 45 of Cuyp's most distinguished paintings and 64 drawings, taken largely from the collections of the organizing institutions but also from other British, Dutch, American and German museums and private collections. The appeal of the work lies not only in the subject matter but also in their distinctive style. Cuyp infused his Arcadian subjects and river views with a sensitivity to light and a clarity of form that is firmly grounded in reality. The essays, by curators and scholars, discuss Cup's work in the context of his time, personal background, artistic development, patrons, use of costume and artistic techniques.

The Brussels-born painter Michael Sweerts pursued his extraordinarily varied career in Italy, Flanders, Holland, and the Far East. One of the most creative yet reticent artists of the Baroque period, he painted low-live figures from the streets of Rome, dandies, rich merchants, and exotic Orientals, as well as bathers and wrestlers. The monumental stillness of his genre scenes, the evocative quality of his pictures of artists’ studios, and the unusual scrutiny he brings to his character studies set him apart from his contemporaries both in Italy and northern Europe. His haunting evocations of adolescent beauty are often compared to Vermeer. 
Virtually unknown at the beginning of the 20th century, Sweerts is now one of the most sought-after painters of his epoch. This book reveals all his various facets through a selection of the very best paintings from his oeuvre, and also contains a full account of the 21 remarkable etchings he produced in Brussels in the late 1650s. Technical studies and new archival research provide valuable insights into the life and working methods of this enigmatic artist whose powerful and finely executed images continue to intrigue both specialists and art-lovers alike.
