The Passions in the Arts of the Early Modern Netherlands - DICKEY, Stephanie S. & ROODENBURG, Herman.

Netherlands Yearbook for History of Art 1010 Volume 60/Nederlands Kunsthistorisch Jaarboek 2010 Deel 60. This volume is the first collection of essays to examine the fascinating aspect of visual culture in the early modern Netherlands. Case studies explore both the representation of the passions in paintings and prints of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries and the responses of contemporary viewers to works ranging from the vived tronies (physiognomic studies) of Rembrandt to the dramatic hunting scenes of Peter Paul Rubens. In additon, several essays examine theoretical approaches to emotional display and response, drawing upon the writings of early modern art theorists, the interplay between painting and theatre, and the emerging field of neuroarthistory.
