Dutch and Belgian art from the romantiques to the present day, where do the two countries overlap eachother and what where the differences? This book contains an extensive analysis of the complex relationship between the two neighbouring countries. Belgium and Holland each went its own way, both went through decades of prosperity with artists like Vincent van Gogh, Piet Mondriaan, James Ensor, Spillaert and Permeke. This book explores in depth the painting in the Netherlands throughout the ages, up to the present day. It offers a complete panorama extending from the early Middle Ages to the most recent trends, reflecting the growth and development of the Dutch artistic identity, poised between tradition and experiment. This is an ambitious work, involving several internationally renowned art historians. It includes an impressive set of illustrations which will enable the reader to appreciate the great masters, schools and artistic currents, admire celebrated masterpieces and discover lesser-known ones. The imaginative layout and interplay of text, images, indices and appendices, bring the three volumes to life.
