Book Description
Pieter Coecke van Aelst (1502 – 1550) was renowned throughout Renaissance Europe as a draftsman, painter, and publisher of architectural treatises. The magnificent tapestries he designed were acquired by the wealthiest clients of the day, up to and including rulers such as Emperor Charles V, King Francis I of France, King Henry VIII of England, and Grand Duke Cosimo I de’ Medici of Tuscany. At the same time, Coecke was remarkable not only for the complexity and unparalleled quality of his tapestries, but also for his fluency in various media: this lavishly illustrated volume examines the full range of his work, from tapestry and stained-glass window designs to panel paintings, prints, drawings, and architectural treatises. Though only forty-eight when he died, Coecke was one of the greatest Netherlandish artists of the sixteenth century. His paintings and drawings, initially wrought in the style of the Antwerp Mannerists, evolved through his enthusiastic response to Italian Renaissance design, and influenced generations of artists in his wake. This comprehensive study explores Coecke’s stylistic development, as well as his substantial contribution to the body of great Renaissance art in Flanders. Featuring twenty monumental tapestries, along with many of their cartoons and preparatory sketches, plus seven paintings, additional drawings, and printed matter—many of them newly photographed for this volume—Grand Design provides a thorough reappraisal of Coecke’s work, amply justifying the high regard in which Coecke’s work was held and its wide dissemination long after his death.

Book Description
Humankind has a special relationship with rain. The sensory experience of water falling from the heavens evokes feelings ranging from fear to gratitude and has inspired many works of art. Using unique and expertly developed art-historical case studies – from prehistoric cave paintings up to photography and cinema – this book casts new light on a theme that is both ecological and iconological, both natural and cultural-historical. Barbara Baert’s distinctive prose makes Looking Into the Rain. Magic, Moisture, Medium a profound reading experience, particularly at a moment when disruptions of the harmony among humans, animals, and nature affect all of us and the entire planet. Barbara Baert is Professor of Art History at KU Leuven. She teaches in the field of Iconology, Art Theory & Analysis, and Medieval Art. Her work links knowledge and questions from the history of ideas, cultural anthropology and philosophy, and shows great sensitivity to cultural archetypes and their symptoms in the visual arts.

Book Description
Mainly active from 1480 to 1490 in Haarlem, Geertgen tot Sint Jans is considered the first of the major painters of the northern Netherlands. This publication examines the recently restored Winterthur panel, formerly attributed to Geertgen, in juxtaposition with his paintings depicting the biblical "Adoration" scene. Already in the Baroque era, Geertgen tot Sint Jans, who lived amongst the Haarlem Hospitallers and died young in 1495, was regarded as the founding father of northern Netherlandish painting. Among the few preserved pieces that can be linked to Geertgen with certainty are four depicting the "Adoration of the Kings". The Winterthur version, the largest of the paintings and formerly attributed to Geertgen, has now been systematically investigated to reveal stylistic and technical traits of an unknown follower. To explore the work of the artist and his legacy, the publication juxtaposes the Wintherthur panel with original Geertgen "Adoration" pictures from the National Gallery in Prague, the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and the Cleveland Museum of Art in Ohio. The similar iconography of the pieces reveals a variety of stylistic accents and emphasizes the artistic progress of his work. In ­focusing on the "Adoration" subject matter, the book also reveals Geertgen's preoccupation with his idol, Hugo van der Goes. Full-page plates and detail reproductions of paintings complement this volume. Extensive commentaries in a series of essays on thematic, artistic and scientific aspects of the investigation are also included.
