He is notable for his loose painterly brushwork, and helped introduce this lively style of painting into Dutch art. Hals was also instrumental in the evolution of 17th century group portraiture. Hals was born in 1580 or 1581, in Antwerp. Like many, Hals' family fled during the Fall of Antwerp (1584-1585) from the Spanish Netherlands to Haarlem, where he lived for the remainder of his life. Hals studied under another Flemish-émigré, Karel van 2/3 Mander (1548-1606), whose Mannerist influence, however, is not noticeably visible in his work. At the age of 27, he became a member of the city's painter's corporation, the Haarlem Guild of Saint Luke, and he started to earn money as an art restorer for the city council. He worked on their large art collection that Karel van Mander had described in his book The Painting-Book (Middle Dutch: Het Schilder-Boeck), published in 1604. The most notable of these were the works of Geertgen tot Sint Jans, Jan van Scorel and Jan Mostaert, that hung in de St. Jans kerk in Haarlem. The restoration work was paid for by the city of Haarlem, since all religious art was confiscated after the iconoclasm, but the entire collection of paintings was not formally possessed by the city council until 1625, after the city fathers had decided which paintings were suitable for the city hall. The remaining art that was considered too "Roman Catholic" was sold to Cornelis Claesz van Wieringen, a fellow guild member, on the grounds that he remove it from the city. It was under these circumstances that Hals began his career in portraiture, since the market for religious themes had disappeared. The earliest known example of Hals' own art is the 1611, Jacobus Zaffius. His 'breakthrough' came in 1616, with the life-size group portrait, The Banquet of the Officers of the St George Militia Company. His most famous portrait today is the one he made in 1649 of René Descartes. • We provide hand painted reproductions of old master paintings.

  • The Institution of the Rosary. Establishing the Context for A
    Klara H. Broekhuijsen The Institution of the Rosary. Establishing the context for a recently discovered copy after a lost panel by Geertgen tot Sint Jans in the Pommersfelden Book of Hours, Ms. 343* In the Museum der bildenden Künste in Leipzig there is a sixteenth-century panel depicting The Institution of the Rosary. The style of the figures and the way in which different moments from the story are distributed organically over the picture surface suggest that it is a copy after a lost work that Geertgen tot Sint Jans painted for the Haarlem Confraternity of the Rosary (fig. 1).1 The left half shows the Virgin appear- ing to the kneeling St Dominic, who is receiving the rosary from the Christ Child. The door in the left background opens onto a room in which the bare-chested St 1 Dominic is kneeling before a crucifix with a rosary in his hand. The right half of Copy after Geertgen tot Sint Jans, the painting shows the dissemination of the rosary. In the foreground, St Dominic The Institution of the Rosary, panel, 28 x 42 cm.

  • To Emile Bernard. Arles, Monday, 30 July 1888
    To Emile Bernard. Arles, Monday, 30 July 1888. Monday, 30 July 1888 Metadata Source status: Original manuscript Location: New York, Thaw Collection, The Morgan Library & Museum Date: Assuming that Van Gogh honoured his promise to write again soon, the present letter dates from shortly after the previous one to Bernard (letter 649, of 29 July). The opening words accordingly appear to be an immediate continuation of their discussion about painting, while the drawings that Bernard had sent are examined at the end. Van Goghs new model, Joseph Roulin, who posed for him on 31 July, is not mentioned, despite the fact that the importance of painting portraits is stressed in this letter. On the assumption that he would have told Bernard about Roulins portrait if he had already painted it, as he did Theo and Willemien in letters 652 and 653, both of 31 July, we have dated this letter Monday, 30 July 1888. Additional: Original [1r:1] Mon cher copain Bernard. Tu admettras, jen doute aucunement, que ni toi ni moi ne puissions avoir de Velasquez et de Goya une ide complte de ce quils etaient comme homme et comme peintres, car ni toi ni moi navons vu lEspagne, leur pays et tant de belles choses qui sont restes dans le midi.

  • Evolution and Ambition in the Career of Jan Lievens (1607-1674)
    ABSTRACT Title: EVOLUTION AND AMBITION IN THE CAREER OF JAN LIEVENS (1607-1674) Lloyd DeWitt, Ph.D., 2006 Directed By: Prof. Arthur K. Wheelock, Jr. Department of Art History and Archaeology The Dutch artist Jan Lievens (1607-1674) was viewed by his contemporaries as one of the most important artists of his age. Ambitious and self-confident, Lievens assimilated leading trends from Haarlem, Utrecht and Antwerp into a bold and monumental style that he refined during the late 1620s through close artistic interaction with Rembrandt van Rijn in Leiden, climaxing in a competition for a court commission. Lievens’s early Job on the Dung Heap and Raising of Lazarus demonstrate his careful adaptation of style and iconography to both theological and political conditions of his time. This much-discussed phase of Lievens’s life came to an end in 1631when Rembrandt left Leiden. Around 1631-1632 Lievens was transformed by his encounter with Anthony van Dyck, and his ambition to be a court artist led him to follow Van Dyck to London in the spring of 1632. His output of independent works in London was modest and entirely connected to Van Dyck and the English court, thus Lievens almost certainly worked in Van Dyck’s studio. In 1635, Lievens moved to Antwerp and returned to history painting, executing commissions for the Jesuits, and he also broadened his artistic vocabulary by mastering woodcut prints and landscape paintings. After a short and successful stay in Leiden in 1639, Lievens moved to Amsterdam permanently in 1644, and from 1648 until the end of his career was engaged in a string of important and prestigious civic and princely commissions in which he continued to demonstrate his aptitude for adapting to and assimilating the most current style of his day to his own somber monumentality.

  • Adaptation, Emulation and Innovation: Scorel, Gossaert and Other Artists As a Source of Inspiration for the Young Heemskerck
    ILJA M. VELDMAN Adaptation, emulation and innovation: Scorel, Gossaert and other artists as a source of inspiration for the young Heemskerck The nature and scope of the early oeuvre of Maarten van Heemskerck (1498-1574) long remained indistinct. Produced before his departure for Rome at the end of May 1532, Heemskerck’s early work was also underestimated and misjudged, due to the absence of signatures and dates on many of his paintings and a dearth of other critical information. In his Schilder-boeck (1604), Karel van Mander centers his brief account of the painter’s fijirst thirty-two years on the omanticr anecdote of an artist of humble birth who persists in a career as a painter despite his father’s opposition.1 As Van Mander recounts, Heemskerck’s fijirst apprenticeship to the Haarlem painter Cornelis Willemsz asw cut short when his father fetched him back to their farm in Heemskerk to milk the family’s cows. But the boy ran away from home and apprenticed himself to the Delft painter Jan Lucasz, who taught him to draw and paint well. When Maarten learned of Jan van Scorel’s return from Italy and of the new Italian style he had developed there, he joined him as his assistant in Haarlem. Heemskerck mastered Scorel’s new art of painting so rapidly and so well, Van Mander writes, that one could barely distinguish their works from each other. Thereupon a jealous Scorel sent him away. Defijinition of Heemskerck’s early oeuvre On the basis of Van Mander’s account and the assumption that Scorel’s talents were naturally superior to those of a mere assistant (‘discipel’), much of Heemskerck’s early oeuvre was widely credited to Scorel, including paintings that in time would be recognized as his most outstanding works.

  • Ohvz-Haarlem Gratuliert Unseren Osnabrücker Kollegen!
    OHvZ-Haarlem gratuliert unseren Osnabrücker Kollegen! 90. Geburtstag des Vereins f. Philatelie u. Numismatik „Niedersachsen“ September 2018 1 Der Briefmarkenverein ‚Op Hoop van Zegels‘ in Haarlem (die Niederlande), gratuliert der Schwesterngemeinschaft in Osnabrück zum 90-jährigen Jubiläum! Der Verein in Haarlem bereitet derzeit eine Online-Präsentation über die Postgeschichte von Haarlem und seiner Umgebung (Süd Kennemerland) vor. Teil dieser Website ist die Darstellung von Haarlem und Haarlemmers auf Briefmarken. Der bekannteste Haarlemmer ist Frans Hals und Gemälde von Frans Hals sind auf Briefmarken aus verschiedenen Ländern zu finden. Anlässlich des Osnabrücker Jubiläums haben wir mit diesen Frans Hals Briefmarken ein kleines Geschenk gemacht. “Frans Hals (* zwischen 1580 und 1585 in Antwerpen; † 10. August 1666 in Haarlem) war ein niederländischer Maler. Er wird zu den bedeutendsten Porträtmalern gezählt… Frans Hals war vermutlich in Haarlem bis 1603 Lehrling des Malers Carel van Mander. 1610 wurde er in die Lukasgilde, die örtliche Malergilde von Haarlem, aufgenommen…Frans Hals werden nach dem Werkverzeichnis von Seymour Slive (1974) 222 Gemälde zugeordnet, hinzu kommen 20 Gemälde, die als verschollen betrachtet werden. 81 weitere Gemälde wurden ihm zugeschrieben, diese Zuschreibungen werden jedoch kritisch betrachtet oder abgelehnt. Sein frühestes datierbares gesichertes Werk, das Bildnis des Jacobus Zaffius, stammt aus dem Jahre 1611.. Den Höhepunkt seines Frühwerkes bildet das Festmahl der Offiziere der Sankt Georgs-Schützengilde von 1616.. Außerdem schuf er Genrebilder von Trinkern, Zigeunern und Frauen bei ihrer Arbeit, dazu kommen auch viele Kinderbildnisse wie zum Beispiel Der Rommelpotspieler. Ab dem Jahre 1626 wandelte sich Frans Hals’ Stil, zum Teil wohl angeregt durch Einflüsse der Utrechter Caravaggisten..Große Lebendigkeit und treffende Charakterisierung zeichnen seine mit kühnem Pinselstrich ausgeführten, skizzenhaft wirkenden Gemälde aus (beispielsweise Malle Babbe).

A series of samples was taken and cross-sections were prepared. The pigments and the binding medium were identified and compared to the materials readily available in 17th century Holland. Black and white, infra-red and ultra-violet photographs as well as X-radiographs were taken and are discussed. The results of this study were compared to 17th c. materials and techniques and to the literature. 3 INTRODUCTION The "Man with a Beer Keg" (oil on canvas 83cm x 66cm), painted around 1630 - 1633) appears in the literature in 1932. [1] It was discovered in London in 1930. It had been in private hands and was, at the time, celebrated as an example of an unsuspected and startling find of an old master.

The Devotio Moderna, which took hold especially in the Low Countries and Germany, emphasised a systematic and personal approach to prayer.3 Devotional images, which could engage with believers on a one-on-one, personal level, were majorly important features of way of practising religion, and the use of images as foci for devotion was encouraged by many writers, not only Thomas à Kempis, but also

  • In 1590, the Dutch Painter and Printmaker Hendrick Goltzius (Fig. 1)
    THE BEER OF BACCHUS VISUAL STRATEGIES AND MORAL VALUES IN HENDRICK GOLTzius’ REPRESENTATIONS OF SINE CERERE ET LIBERO FRIGET VENUS Ricardo De Mambro Santos n 1590, the Dutch painter and printmaker Hendrick Goltzius (Fig. 1) created a sim- Iple yet refined composition representing a motif directly borrowed from Terence’s Eunuchus, namely the sentence Sine Cerere et Libero friget Venus (« Without Ceres and 1 Bacchus, Venus would freeze »). Sixteen years later, around 1606, after having depicted several times the same subject in very different compositions, the master elaborated his last representation of this theme in a most monumental pen werck (‘pen work’), in which he included a self-portrait staring at the viewer and holding in both hands the 2 tools of his metamorphic art : the burins. Many scholarly publications have correctly identified the textual source of these works and, therefore, analysed Goltzius’ visual constructions in strict relation to Terence’s play, stressing that the sentence was used 3 « to describe wine and food as precondition for love ». In spite of such a systematic attention, however, no research has been undertaken in the attempt to historically interpret Goltzius’ works within their original context of production, in connection with the social, artistic and economic boundaries of their first ambient of reception, the towns of Haarlem and Amsterdam at the turn of the centuries. As I shall demonstrate in this paper, the creation of such a coherent corpus of prints, drawings and paintings is directly associated
