Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on the enigmatic painter Jean Bellegambe of Douai, an artist who was largely forgotten by history but whose work is now being rediscovered and celebrated. The author presents a compelling case for Bellegambe's significance within the broader context of 16th-century Flemish art, highlighting the influence of Italian masters and the unique blend of styles that characterized his work. Through a meticulous examination of Bellegambe's most famous masterpiece, a polyptych altarpiece, the book explores themes of religious devotion, artistic patronage, and the complex relationship between art and spirituality in the Renaissance period. Ultimately, this book not only sheds light on a forgotten artist but also provides valuable insights into the vibrant artistic and cultural landscape of the early modern Netherlands.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the Portuguese claim that they were the first to discover and explore the interior of the African continent centuries ago. The author examines maps, travel accounts, and other historical documents to assess the validity of this claim. The author demonstrates that many of the "discoveries" and geographical features depicted on maps of the time were based on ancient sources, not on actual exploration. We learn, for instance, that the idea of a large lake in the center of Africa, from which major rivers flowed, is an ancient one, originating with Greek geographers and perpetuated by Arab travelers and medieval European cartographers. The book argues that the Portuguese did not have the knowledge or ability to explore the interior of Africa at the time claimed, and that their accounts are largely fictional and based on hearsay and wishful thinking.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the life and artistry of artist Thiery Bouts, also known as Dieric Bouts, tracing his role in the development of the Early Netherlandish painting school.

The author provides a comprehensive analysis of Bouts's most renowned works including The Entombment and The Martyrdom of Saint Erasmus, examining the influence of his devout Catholic background on his depictions of religious scenes. Through an exploration of his artistic techniques and the social context of his era, this book shines a light on the artistic brilliance of a painter who played a significant role in the history of the Northern Renaissance.
