Looking at Seventeenth-Century Dutch Art
by
Despite the active tradition of scholarship on Dutch painting of the seventeenth century, scholars continue to grapple with the problem of how the strikingly realistic characteristics of art from this period can be reconciled with its possible meanings. Looking at Seventeenth-Century Dutch Art, which includes classic essays as well as contributions especially written for this volume, provides a timely survey of the principal interpretative methods and debates, from their origins in the 1960s to current manifestations, while suggesting potential avenues of inquiry for the future.

Antioch
by Christine Kondoleon
This lavish exhibition catalog brings to life Antioch, the magnificent city known for its Hellenic culture and luxurious way of life, once ranking with Rome, Alexandria, and Constantinople as one of the great metropolises of the Roman and early Christian world. Located in what is now southern Turkey, Antioch was the capital of Ancient Syria, a vital marketplace at the crossroads between East and West. It was here that St. Paul preached to the first gentile community to be called "Christians" and where a Greek-speaking Jewish culture flourished alongside Roman, Egyptian, and Near Eastern cults. A large middle-class shared in the wealth and culture of the city, and art abounded in numerous forms, especially in beautiful mosaics depicting scenes from mythology and everyday life. Featuring 118 objects excavated from the city's ruins, all reproduced in full color, ANTIOCH: THE LOST ANCIENT CITY recreates the spatial sensation, visual splendor, and cultural richness of this urban center.
The Seventeenth Century
by Madeleine Mainstone
An introduction to many of the greatest figures in Western art-including Caravaggio, Vermeer, Rubens, Rembrandt, and Velazquez--who flourished in the seventeenth century, an age when patrons as well as artists freely planned and produced masterpieces on a grand scale.
