PIETER SAENREDAM: THE PAINTER AND HIS TIME, Gary Schwartz & Marten Jan Bok

Pieter Saenredam was a 17th-century Dutch painter who specialized in lovely, subtly colored images of architectural spaces, chiefly church interiors. Although not widely known today, his paintings have an unusual beauty and psychological power that have attracted attention from such writers as Susan Sontag and Roland Barthes. Much of the information presented has been newly uncovered in Dutch archives, providing important clues to answering questions raised by earlier, more speculative Saenredam scholarship. Contains large color reproductions of all known Saenredam paintings.
