Muller, Associate Professor in Art History at the University of Utah, for her encouragement and guidance throughout the process of producing this handbook. Professor E. Frank Sanguinetti, Director of the Utah Museum of Fine Arts, and Dr. Lowell Durham, Director of the University of Utah Humanities Center, have earned my gratitude for their support and the time they spent critically reviewing this lengthy work. I am particularly grateful for having been awarded one of the George S. and Dolores Doré Eccles Fellowships from a grant administered by the Humanities Center of the University of Utah. Without the generous financial support provided by this fellowship a project of this scope would have been difficult to complete. A number of people deserve specific mention for their support. I would like to sincerely thank David Carroll, Registrar at the Utah Museum of Fine Arts, and his assistant Melody Moore, for their assistance in providing access to the collection and for their insightful comments. The staff of the Fine Arts Library at the Marriott Library of the University of Utah, Myron Patterson, Dorothy Greenland, Chris Smith, and Susan Travis, were invariably helpful and gracious in providing much-needed resources. I am indebted to the staff of the Interlibrary Loan Office of the Marriott Library, Linda Burns, David Vielstich, and Noel Case, for their expertise in procuring many and often obscure texts. Research in the Netherlands was much facilitated by the unhesitating assistance of the staff of the Rijksprentenkabinet at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The cordial and knowledgeable staff of the Rijksbureau voor Kunsthistorische Documentatie and of the Koninklijke Bibliotheek at The Hague were also most helpful. I owe thanks to several scholars whose gracious and erudite responses to my inquiries did much to clarify certain issues: Julius S. Held, Malcolm Rogers, Peter C. Sutton, Walter Liedtke, Geoffrey Down, Marijn Schapelhouman, and Evelyn L. Kort-van Kaam. My thanks go also to Michele Schick, Madeleine Viljoen, Shelly Ezzard Smith, and Ruth Gier for their assistance. Finally, I would like to express my sincere and heartfelt thanks to my husband Richard, my family, and many loyal friends, without whose unwavering support and encouragement
