This course will explore the innovations of one of the richest periods in Dutch art. As well as examining genres such as landscape, portrait, flower paintings, and still lives, it will focus in detail on key artists including Rembrandt, Vermeer, Jan Steen, Frans Hals, and Rachel Ruysch and unravel the complex symbolism of the period.
Term 1 explores the relationship between nature, the new Dutch Republic, its topography, and its colonies.
