This book presents new research into the men and women who specialized in hand coloring and offers numerous insights into the social and economic organization of Renaissance and Baroque printmaking. It also draws on scientific analyses of the materials and techniques of hand coloring to address important questions of authenticity, chronology, and condition. With a catalogue and color illustrations of all the hand-colored prints in the exhibition, this book makes a groundbreaking contribution to the study of old master prints and their pivotal place in the visual culture of early modern Europe.
The exhibition, Painted prints: The revelation of color in Northern Renaissance and Baroque engravings, etchings, and woodcuts, will be at The Baltimore Museum of Art.
Zeichnungssehen, Köln (Wallraf-Richartz-Museum/Fondation Corboud) 2002
96 p., b/w ill.
Series: Bildhefte zur Sammlung, vol. 10; ISBN Paperback: ca. EURO 18.00 / Dfl 40.00
Zeichnungssehen, das ist eine jener Ausstellungen der Graphischen Sammlung, in denen zum größten Teil Stücke aus dem eigenen Bestand gezeigt werden. Dabei gibt es in diesem Fall ein Spektrum unterschiedlichster Beispiele, das sowohl manches der bekannten "Highlights" als auch andererseits solche Stücke enthält, die den meisten Besuchern ganz unbekannt sein dürften. Nicht wenige unter diesen Exponaten werden überhaupt zum ersten Mal präsentiert. Ausschlaggebend ist also nicht die Prominenz, sondern die Aussagekraft im Sinne des Themas. Auch ist das wichtigste Ziel nicht die Klärung von Zuschreibungs- oder Datierungsfragen. Statt dessen geht es in erster Linie darum, was ein Blatt uns über das "Medium" Zeichnung verrät.
Hans Vredeman de Vries und die Renaissance im Norden, Munich (Hirmer Verlag) 2002
ISBN 3-7774-9470-4; Price: ca. EURO 55.00 / Dfl 122.00; 399 p., col. ill.
Der grandiose Erfolg von Hans Vredeman de Vries (1526-1609) verbindet sich mit dem Aufstieg seiner wichtigsten Wirkungsstätte, der Kunst- und Handelsmetropole Antwerpen, zum bedeutendsten europäischen Verlagsort für Druckgraphik. Mit seinen erfindungsreichen Architektur- und Ornamentenwürfen prägte er den Stil der Renaissance in Nordeuropa. Von herausragender Bedeutung ist Vredemans Werk darüber hinaus für die Anwendung der Zentralperspektive in der niederländischen Malerei. Der vorliegende Band würdigt erstmalig umfassend einen der bedeutendsten und vielseitigsten Künstler der Renaissance in Nordeuropa. Die internationalen Autoren zeichnen ein breites Spektrum von Vredemans Wirken und liefern einen Überblick über die kulturellen Entwicklungen der Epoche. Der reich bebilderte Katalog enthält neben einem vollständigen kritischen Werkverzeichnis von Hans Vredeman de Vries auch zahlreiche Gemälde seines Sohnes Paul, der bis zum Tod des Vaters mit diesem zusammenarbeitete.

Die Zeichnungen von Rembrandt und seinen Schülern im Besitz der Staatlichen Graphischen Sammlung München gehören fast alle zum Kernbestand des Museums, das heißt, zu jener Sammlung von Zeichnungen und Druckgraphik, mir der Kurfürst Carl Theodor 1758 in Mannheim das Zeichnungs- und Kupferstichkabinett gründete. Die rund 350 Blätter des 'Rembrandt-Komplexes', der neben Originalen von Rembrandt Werke von Schülern, Nachfolgern und Nachahmern einschließt, wurden bereits um die Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts erworben. Die Exponate der Ausstellung sind nach Themen gruppiert. Rembrandt ist mit Zeichnungen aus dem Frühwerk, das noch in Leiden entstand, wie auch aus dem Spätwerk vertreten; ihnen sind Werke von Schülern und Nachfolgern zur Seite gestellt. Einen wichtigen Platz nimmt hier die 'Dekoration des Amsterdamer Rathauses' mit dem Entwurf für 'Claudius Civilis' von Rembrandt und mit den großformatigen Vorzeichnungen von Ferdinand Bol ein.

Manfred Sellink and Marjolein Leesberg, Philips Galle, Rotterdam (Sound & Vision Pub.) 2001
4 volumes. Series: The new Hollstein Dutch & Flemish etchings, engravings and woodcuts 1450-1700
ISBN: per volume; Price: ca. EURO 360.00 / Dfl 794.00
The present New Hollstein volumes are dedicated to Philips Galle as an engraver. In general Galle is most renowned for his series of portraits of famous scholars, which are catalogued and illustrated in full including the portraits engraved by the Galle workshop. These series, however, form only part of Philips Galle's engraved oeuvre, which contains current as well as iconographically more innovating religious and moralistic subjects.Trained by the Haarlem humanist Dirck Volckertsz. Coornhert, Galle started working from Haarlem for Hieronymus Cock of Antwerp, by far the most important print publisher in the Low Countries. From 1563 onwards Philips Galle started his own business as a print publisher in Haarlem. He moved to Antwerp in 1570, where he set up a print shop on a far larger scale using Hieronymus Cock and Christophe Plantin of the famous Plantin Press as a model. Besides designing his own compositions, Galle worked with designers such as Anthonie Blocklandt, Hans Bol, Maarten de Vos and Johannes Stradanus. He employed many talented engravers, amongst whom the Wierix brothers, Adriaen and Johannes Collaert, Crispijn van der Passe, Gerard van Groeningen, Johannes Sadeler and his own sons. Galle also became acquainted with numerous humanists and scholars. From 1600 onwards Theodoor Galle took over control of the workshop, which came to an end only after the death of the latter's son Johannes in 1676.

A.W.F.M. Meij, Rubens, Jordaens, Van Dyck en tijdgenoten. Vlaamse tekeningen uit de 17de eeuw, Rotterdam (Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen) 2001
ISBN 90-5662-212-9; Price: ca. Dfl 115.00 / EURO 53.00
An important part of the famous collection of Old Master drawings in the Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum in Rotterdam are the c. 250 drawings by Flemish masters of the 17th century. Among these, the drawings by the great Antwerp masters Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640), Jacob Jordaens (1593-1678) and Anthonie van Dyck (1599-1641) stand out as absolute highlights. This generously illustrated publication examines seventy of their important drawings, discussing not only the significance of these works, but also their provenance, attribution and dating. This book also focuses on contemporaries, born between 1575 and 1650, who worked more or
less in the shadow of these great masters, such as Lucas van Uden, Jan Wildens, Adriaen van Stalbempt, Peter Bout, Frans Snijders, Cornelis Schut and Abraham van Diepenbeeck. Recently their work has attracted more and more attention in art literature. They are all specialists in their own genre, for example landscapes, seascapes
and still lifes, or biblical, religious and historical painting. Alongside this extensive catalogue of works, this book includes various essays: Hans Vlieghe writes on Flemish art of the first half of the 17th century; Bert Meijer about cultural relations between Antwerp and Venice; Roger Baetens about the decline of Antwerp's prosperity; Carl Depauw about Flemish drawing in the 17th century; and Ger Luijten on print production in the ateliers of painters in Antwerp.

ISBN 90-75607-55-5
The first complete survey of the graphical oeuvre of Jacques de Gheyn II was based on the notes of I.Q. van Regteren Altena, then director of the Amsterdam Rijksprentenkabinet was published in Hollstein. Although quite an achievement at the time, this catalogue needed revision, a task Van Regteren Altena accomplished to some extent in his three-volume catalogue of De Gheyn's drawings issued posthumously in 1983. In his book, he rightly presumed that drawings by De Gheyn must have existed for all of the prints that bear his name as inventor, and thus included a list of 'lost designs for prints', which contains a great deal of collateral information on prints as well as biographical data. While he was still head of the Rijksprentenkabinet, Jan Piet Filedt Kok assumed the task of compiling a completely revised and corrected catalogue. Filedt Kok not only catalogued the works engraved by De Gheyn himself, but assembled a corpus comprising the prints by others after his designs - done both in his workshop and elsewhere - as well as prints bearing De Gheyn's name as publisher. We decided to maintain this corpus for these two New Hollstein volumes, which so clearly presents De Gheyn's initiatives in the field of printmaking.

Manfred Sellink, Cornelis Cort, Rotterdam (Sound & Vision Publ.) 1999
The new Hollstein Dutch & Flemish etchings, engravings and woodcuts 1450-1700
350 p., ill.;
ISBN unknown; Price ca. Dfl 625.00 / EURO 284.00
Cornelis Cort (1533/36-1578) is unquestionably one of the most influential Netherlandish printmakers of the sixteenth century. The amazing number of contemporary copies after each of these prints - often more than a dozen, some of them by Cornelis Cort himself - attest to the popularity of his work. In 1948 the Dutch collector J.C.J. Bierens de Haan published an extensive catalogue of prints by Cort. Although this catalogue - one of the earliest on a Netherlandish engraver of the sixteenth century - still stands out as an exemplary scholarly study, art histortical development has long required the publication of a new catalogue. Recent research has allowed new insights into Cort's work during both the Antwerp and Italian period. A few dozen prints have been deattributed, while a smaller number of works have now been added to his oeuvre. In many instances easier access to collections has also resulted in changes in the numbers of recorded states and other data described by Bierens de Haan. As far as possible current research on Italian art has been taken into account in the listings of related paintings and drawings, with bibliographical references. Special attention has been paid to the copies after prints by Cort, and their descriptions will be more comprehensive than in other Hollstein volumes. These copies provide us with valuable information on the market and taste for prints in the second half of the sixteenth century. Since in many cases deceptive copies have been mistaken for the original works, a number of copies will actually be illustrated in these Hollstein volumes.
Jan Piet Filedt Kok, Harriet Stroomberg, Erik Hinterding The Muller family, Rotterdam (Sound & Vision Publ.) 1999
The new Hollstein Dutch & Flemish etchings, engravings and woodcuts 1450-1700
2 vols, 350 ca. pp. each, ill.; ca. EURO 567,00, Dfl. 1.250,00 (2 vols. set)
ISBN 90-75607-55-5
Part I is dedicated to Harmen Jansz. Muller's work as an engraver, first for Antwerp publishers like Gerard de Jode and Hieronymus Cock and from designs by a variety of artists. Until the co-operation with his son Jan, Harmen published a number of prints by himself and others. A fully illustrated catalogue is offered for the first time. Part II will comprise the catalogue of Jan Muller's output, together with an introduction in which the activities of Jan's grandfather, the woddcutter and publisher Jan Ewoutsz. Muller will be discussed among others. The role of Harmen Jansz. Muller is well known from the engraved addresses seen on Jan's prints. A catalogue of watermarks in Jan Muller's prints demarcates the use of paper in the Muller workshop and in that of later publishers. Jan Muller is one of the first artists in the history of printmaking by whom a significant number of proof impressions has survived. Therefore the genesis of many of his prints can be clearly followed; the various stages will be lavishly illustrated and detailed here. The illustrated catalogue of book illustrations used in publications of Harmen Jansz. Muller and all other members of the Muller dynasty is preceded by an introduction summarizing the current state of research. Together the volumes provide an overview of the entire corpus of printed imagery by members of the Muller dynasty.
