Dutch Old Masters from Budapest Ildiko Ember

Published to accompany a major exhibition at the Frans Hals Museum in Haarlem, Dutch Old Masters from Budapest presents 80 works by Dutch masters from one of the finest collections in the world, that of the Szépmüvészeti Múzeum in Budapest. Works by artists from Haarlem including Frans Hals, Willem Buytewech, Willem Claesz Heda, Pieter Saenredam and Jacob van Ruisdael are shown alongside works by famous Dutch and Flemish painters such as Hendrick Avercamp, Jan Lievens and Anthony van Dyck.

This publication presents these gems from the Szépmüvészeti Múzeum in large color reproductions interspersed with texts about the period's genres and techniques as they are represented in the collection, throwing new light on the Haarlem pieces while painting a kaleidoscopic picture of the art of this period.
