Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. The definitive catalogue for the groundbreaking exhibition that explored the transformative impact of Asian luxury goods on the Netherlands in the 17th century. Written by a team of 30 international scholars, this volume documents how the Dutch East India Company (VOC) brought an "astonishing range" of exotic treasures—from Chinese blue-and-white porcelain to Indian chintz and Japanese lacquer—into the homes of Amsterdam's elite. It argues that these imports did not just decorate Dutch life but fundamentally reshaped it, inspiring artists like Rembrandt and Willem Kalf to incorporate these new textures and colors into their masterpieces. Key Features: The "Sensory" Experience: Essays detail the smells (spices), textures (silks), and visual brilliance of the objects that flooded the Dutch market. Catalogue Entries: Features 150 works of art, including the famous "Kraak" porcelain and rare Sawankhalok wares, placed side-by-side with the Dutch still-life paintings that depicted them. Cross-Cultural Analysis: Explores how Dutch delftware potters and textile dyers tried to imitate Asian technologies, leading to new European art forms. Quarto (31 cm). 356 pages. 250 color illustrations.…

Made of special, precious materials and adorned with intriguing exotic patterns no one had ever seen before, the Asian treasures caused a sensation. Fine white porcelain with blue designs from China, lacquer work from Japan, gems from India, silk fabrics and textiles from China, Japan and India, remarkably shaped shells, black ebony. The Dutch gasped at the beauty of it all and enthusiastically incorporated these treasures into their hitherto more modest interiors.

Softcover, 383 pages with color illustrations. 19-15cm. English text. *New. ISBN 9789462089501. New look at life in the 17th century / The tangible world behind the paintings, with real objects from everyday life / Published to coincide with the At Home in the 17th Century exhibition at the Rijksmuseum (17 October 2025 ? 11 January 2026) What belongings did people have at home in the 17th century? At Home in the 17th Century opens the door to everyday domestic life and brings the reader closer to the people of the time. From everyday objects such as combs and brooms used for personal care and household chores, to wedding rings and christening gifts that marked important life events. Instead of familiar idealized genre paintings, this book focuses on real life. Several Rijksmuseum curators delved into the world behind the paintings: the residents and the objects that surrounded them. What people left behind ? furniture and utensils and even cesspool finds ? gives a picture of how they furnished and used their homes. The result is an intimate look behind the front door of the 17th century ? into a world that is sometimes surprisingly recognizable, but often radically different as well. 0 g.…
