Hardcover in cloth, with dusjacket, Pages: 320, Format: 28 x 23 cm, Hardcover with dust-jacket. text only in English. ISBN 9789061537540. before the advent of the great Baroque masters. Featuring previously unpublished materials, Antwerp Art after Iconoclasm investigates how the esteemed painters of the period sought a new visual idiom. The author explains why this era should be considered an important stage in the broader context of art history and demonstrates that the paintings represent a subtle but important reinterpretation of the traditional, religious iconography and style that served as a starting point for Netherlandish Baroque. De Beeldenstorm die de Lage Landen in 1566 teisterde, is een sleutelbegrip in de geschiedenis van de Nederlanden. Deze ?volksopstand?, die deels door protestantse ideeen werd ingegeven, wordt vooral geassocieerd met het iconoclasme (vernietigen van beelden) en geldt traditioneel als een keerpunt in de geschiedenis van de Lage Landen. Het is dan ook des te merkwaardiger dat dit ?voorval? tot nog toe nooit de aandacht kreeg die het in de kunstgeschiedschrijving verdient. Aan de hand van tot op heden ongepubliceerd materiaal onderzoekt de auteur hoe bekende schilders uit die tijd naar een nieuw visueel idioom op zoek gingen. Uit zijn boek komt naar voren dat deze nauwelijks bestudeerde kunsthistorische periode een keerpunt was en dat de schilderijen uit die tijd een subtiele maar toch belangrijke herinterpretatie van de traditionele religieuze iconografie en stijl brachten en het startpunt van de Nederlandse barokstijl vormden. 0 g.
