Fear, sadness, surprise, anger, lust and love – virtually nothing was more important in the paintings of the Golden Age than convincingly depicting human emotions. In this publication, the Frans Hals Museum and Rembrandt expert Gary Schwartz present a selection of masterpieces in which these emotions are sublimely portrayed.

Pierre-Joseph Redoute
Pierre-Joseph Redouté (1759-1840) is the undisputed master of botanical art. His illustrations of flowers occupy the intersection of art and science, and they represent a unique fusion of botanical precision with artistic elegance. This richly illustrated publication presents a wide selection of Redouté's books, drawings and watercolours. Several short essays by Dutch and French specialists deal with different aspects of his art. As court artist to Queen Marie-Antoinette and Empress Joséphine, Redouté drew extraordinary flowers and plants from the Jardin des plantes and the gardens of Malmaison, which made him the darling of Parisian society. Napoleon Bonaparte presented his books as gifts to the crowned heads of Europe, and his pictures illustrated the works of the most eminent scientists of his day. His most famous books, Les Liliacées and Les Roses, are among the milestones of botanical literature. The Teylers Museum was presenting the first retrospective of this artist's work in the Netherlands.kunst
Robert Indiana
Robert Indiana (1928-2018) was an American artist associated with the Pop Art movement. The American dream, the promise of freedom, happiness and material affluence is the basis of his creative work. Indiana's eye-catching sign paintings are among the most radical expressions of Pop Art and take up the aesthetics of advertising and consumerism, building bold icons from numbers, letters and forms. This publication presents Indiana's classic work in its full breadth on the basis of selected examples and provides evidence of the shining significance and enormous presence of his most famous work, ?Love?, in his oeuvre.kunst
Mittelalterliche Bildwerke aus Utrecht 1430-1530
The catalogue presents medieval Utrecht sculpture from before the Iconoclasm, the period when mobs destroyed many images in the city's Catholic churches. The masterpieces shown range from monumental altarpieces, replete with statues, sculptures of saints in various dimensions and versions to comparatively small, yet highly detailed, pipeclay figures. Revealing the full splendour of Netherlandish art before the Golden Age, the catalogue demonstrates that it was not the Caravaggisti who first cast the light of the art world onto Utrecht. Some 100 years before the great Baroque painters graced the stage, Dutch sculptors and carvers enjoyed an international reputation, and were exporting their artefacts to north, south and east Europe.kunst
