Alison Mcneil Kettering Alison McNeil Kettering After earning a BA in Art History from Oberlin College, Professor Kettering attended the University of California, Berkeley for her MA and PhD degrees. Midway through graduate school she spent a year teaching at Carleton College. Later she taught at Hobart and William Smith Colleges, Swarthmore College, and the University of California, Santa Cruz. In 1982, she returned to the Carleton faculty, where she is now the William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor of Art History. With a special interest in seventeenth-century Dutch art, Professor Kettering has taught a wide range of courses on early modern art throughout Western Europe, gender issues in Western art, portraiture, and the theory and methodology of art history. Kettering is the author of several books, The Dutch Arcadia: Pastoral Art and Its Audience in the Golden Age, Drawings from the Ter Borch Studio Estate in the Rijksmuseum, Rembrandt’s Group Portraits, and Gerard ter Borch and the Treaty of Münster/Gerard ter Borch en de Vrede van Munster. She has also published numerous articles on Gerard ter Borch, Rembrandt, women artists, and gender issues. One of these,“Ter Borch’s Ladies in Satin” (Art History 1993), was reprinted in Looking at Seventeenth-Century Dutch Art (ed. Wayne Franits, Cambridge, 1997). Another article, “Men at Work in Dutch Art, or Keeping One’s Nose to the Grindstone,” was published in The Art Bulletin (December 2007). Kettering has won fellowships from the American Philosophical Society, the American Council of Learned Societies, and the National Endowment for the Humanities. In 1997, she was a Fellow at the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Study in Wassenaar. Her forthcoming articles include “The Rustic Still Life in Dutch Genre Painting: Bijwerck dat Verclaert,” which will be published in New Perspectives on Early Modern Northern European Genre Imagery (ed. Art Di Furia, Ashgate Press), and “Hendrick Goltzius, Painting with Chalk,” for publication in Affect, Agency and Uses of Portrayal: Approaches to the Netherlandish Portrait (1550–1700) (ed. Ann J. Adams, Ashgate Press). She is a past president of Historians of Netherlandish Art and, since 2008, Editor-in-Chief of the semiannual, refereed e-journal, Journal of Historians of Netherlandish Art (www.jhna.org).

  • Vermeer and the Masters of Genre Painting: Inspiration and Rivalry Wednesday, November 8, 2017 the Exhibition Is Organized by the 4:30 – 7:30 P.M
    vermeer and the masters of genre painting national gallery of art october 22, 2017 – january 21, 2018 AMONG THE MOST ENDURING IM AGES of the Dutch Golden Age are genre paintings, or scenes of daily life, from the third quarter of the seventeenth century. Made during a time of unparalleled inno- vation and prosperity, these exquisite portrayals of refined Dutch society — elegant men and women writing letters, playing music, and tending to their daily rituals — present a genteel world that is extraordinarily appealing. Today, Johannes Vermeer is the most cel- ebrated of these painters thanks to the beauty and tranquility of his images. Yet other masters, among them Gerard ter Borch, Gerrit Dou, Frans van Mieris, and Gabriel Metsu, also created works that are remarkably similar in style, subject matter, and technique. The visual connections between these artists’ paintings suggest a robust atmosphere of innovation and exchange — but to what extent did they inspire each other’s work, and to what extent did they follow their own artistic evolution? This exhibition brings together almost seventy paintings made between about 1655 and 1680 to explore these questions and celebrate the inspiration, rivalry, and artistic evolution of Vermeer and other masters of genre painting.

Willoughby REPORT ON THE MILITIA MUSTER OF SEPTEMBER 27 Sixteen members of our Militia, together with 27 others mustering with 6 other militias and two sutlers, made this muster one of the most successful ones in several years. The superb weather and a large crowd of more than 1200 visitors drawn in by the concurrently scheduled St. Mary’s River Fest sponsored by the St. Mary’s River Watershed Association contributed to the success of the muster. The weekend began with six of our members gathering at 4:00-5:45 p.m. Friday, September 26, to set up camp consisting of the dining fly, quartermaster tent, and fire pit. They then met at the nearby Willoughby plantation for the evening meal and socializing, joined by two later-arriving members, before retiring for the night in the 1676 State House. The muster encampment was set up in the area behind the Margaret Brent Garden and east of the Van Sweringen coffee house, where the muster has camped for the previous two years. The military demonstration, held at 3:00 p.m., was in the field just beyond the encampment, and with 17 musketeers and five pikemen made an impressive showing. Activities throughout the day included sessions of drilling children in handling of musket and pike, camp activities and displays for visitors, meals in camp, and the Ladies’ gathering at 2:00 p.m.

Girl Reading a Letter at an Open Window, c. 1657, oil on canvas An innkeeper and art dealer who painted only for local patrons, Jan (Johannes) Vermeer (1632-1675) entered the Delft artists’ guild in 1653. “Of the fewer than forty canvases securely attributed to Vermeer, most are of a similar type- quiet, low-key in color, and asymmetrical but strongly geometric in organization. Vermeer achieved his effects through a consistent architectonic construction of space in which every object adds to the clarity and balance of the composition. An even light from a window often gives solidity to the figures and objects in a room. All emotion is subdued, as Vermeer evokes the stillness of meditation. Even the brushwork is so controlled that it becomes invisible, except when he paints reflected light as tiny droplets of color. Jan Vermeer. The Milkmaid. c. 1657-1658, oil on canvas Despite its traditional title, the picture clearly shows a kitchen or housemaid, a low- ranking indoor servant, rather than a milkmaid who actually milks the cow, in a plain room carefully pouring milk into a squat earthenware container (now commonly known as a "Dutch oven") on a table.

In 1646 Andries married his niece, Elisabeth Bicker van Swieten (1623–56), and had three children by her.

  • Color Symbolism in Seventeenth- Century Dutch Painting
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: COLORING THE NARRATIVE: COLOR SYMBOLISM IN SEVENTEENTH- CENTURY DUTCH PAINTING Brighton Kelley Hanson Master of Arts, 2008 Directed By: Professor Arthur K. Wheelock, Jr. Department of Art History and Archaeology Numerous attributes grace the allegorical personifications in Cesare Ripa’s 1593 Iconologia; included among these are colored gowns. In the seventeenth-century, Karel van Mander, Samuel van Hoogstraten, and Gesina ter Borch also write of the symbolism found in color. However, such color symbolism is rarely mentioned in modern interpretations of Dutch narrative paintings. Three case studies seek to test the applicability and limitations of color symbolism as an interpretative tool in narrative paintings by Karel van Mander, Samuel van Hoogstraten and Gerard ter Borch. In these, color symbolism provides the meaning behind decorum when interpreted through figures’ garments. The appendix contains a comparative chart of the color symbolism in texts by Cesare Ripa, Karel van Mander, Justus de Harduijn, Gesina ter Borch, and Samuel van Hoogstraten.

    Caspar Netscher (Prague or Heidelberg ca. 1639 – 1684 The Hague) How to cite Bakker, Piet. “Caspar Netscher” (2017). In The Leiden Collection Catalogue, 2nd ed. Edited by Arthur K. Wheelock Jr. New York, 2017–20. https://theleidencollection.com/artists/caspar-netscher/ (archived June 2020). A PDF of every version of this biography is available in this Online Catalogue's Archive, and the Archive is managed by a permanent URL. New versions are added only when a substantive change to the narrative occurs. According to Houbraken, Caspar Netscher was born around 1639. His parents were the sculptor Johann Netscher (d. 1639) from Stuttgart and Elizabeth Vetter, daughter of a Heidelberg burgermeister.[1] Johan’s father is said to have worked at the court in Heidelberg and Prague. Johann died shortly before Caspar’s birth. His widow, fearing the dangers of the Thirty Years’ War that was then still raging, fled the region and after many peregrinations finally settled with her children in Arnhem. She died soon thereafter, and Arnold Tulleken, the local doctor, took Caspar in. Tulleken initially gave the boy a medical education, but when Caspar displayed a propensity for drawing, Tulleken apprenticed him to the Arnhem painter Hendrik Coster (ca. 1620–64).[2] Thanks to the mediation of “Wynant Everwyn, who was a cousin of Ter Borch,” Netscher entered the workshop of Gerard ter Borch (1617–81) in Deventer around 1655.[3] Here he received the second part of his training, and mastered Ter Borch’s refined style to perfection. He subsequently stayed on as an assistant until about 1659.

Due to traditional biases that castigated women's vanity in association with mirror gazing, self-representation was problematic for the female artist. Nevertheless, several early-modern Dutch women artists were able to subvert these prejudices and proclaim for themselves a fame previously restricted to men.
