The Royal Collection contains one of the finest groups of Dutch 17th century paintings in the world, with examples by some of the greatest names associated with that school - including Vermeer, Rembrandt, Frans Hals, Aelbert Cuyp, Jan Steen, Gerard ter Borch and Willem van de Velde.
The colour details and full-page illustrations in this book about Dutch art in the Golden Age reproduce for the reader the experience of encountering these paintings for the first time, encouraging them to look, to re-assess, and to explore anew.
This book about Dutch paintings is one of many art books available from the National Gallery, which include art history books, art exhibition catalogues and gift books.
