AL 34104 - The Dutch Painters in London

Institution:

University of Notre Dame

Subject:

Arts and Letters (Non-dept.)

Description:

During the seventeenth century the Netherlands developed into two states: the Southern Netherlands, ruled by Spain, which remained Roman Catholic, and the Northern Netherlands, which became an independent Protestant country, ancestor of the modern Holland. In both, a rich visual culture flourished in the fields of architecture, print-making and particularly painting, dominated in Flanders by Rubens, and in Holland by Rembrandt, Hals and many other notable figures. Using the rich holdings of the Wallace Collection and the National Gallery, this course will examine the development of visual art in both states, contrasting it with parallel developments in religion, science and early capitalism.
