Book Description
Rembrandt and the Golden Age of Dutch Art celebrates an unprecedented era in the history of art. Drawn from the superb collections of Amsterdam's famed Rijksmuseum, the works of art featured here are a testament to the richness and variety of the paintings, prints, and decorative arts produced in the Netherlands in the 17th century. In a unique approach, Ruud Priem leads the viewer through the highlights of the Golden Age, beginning with the artists themselves and their studios, emerging into busy city streets and the bucolic Dutch countryside, and sampling the variety of 17th-century life and culture. Featured are ninety dazzling works by preeminent Dutch artists--Rembrandt van Rijn, Frans Hals, Jacob van Ruisdael, Pieter de Hooch, and Jan Steen, among them.

Book Description
"Er zijn maar liefst 35.000 exemplaren van 'Rijks, Masters of the Golden Age' verkocht. Wegens het grote succes van deze uitgave is het tijd voor een nieuwe druk, en wel de 5e druk! Aan de 4e druk werden de twee beroemde huwelijksportretten van Marten Soolmans en Oopjen Coppit (Rembrandt - 1634) toegevoegd. De 5e druk bevat opnieuw extra pagina's. Na een tournee door de 12 provincies van Nederland, zal het imposante portret 'De Vaandeldrager' (Rembrandt - c. 1636) vanaf 2023 permanent worden opgenomen in de Eregalerij van het Rijksmuseum. Uiteraard verdient ook dit meesterwerk het te worden opgenomen in 'Rijks, Masters of the Golden Age'. 'Rijks, Masters of the Golden Age' brengt ons oog in oog met de iconische schilderijen uit de prestigieuze Eregalerij van het Rijksmuseum. Met de prachtige details van de kunstwerken en de commentaren van hedendaagse kritische denkers zoals Erwin Olaf, David Allen, Angela Missoni en Jimmy Nelson, is dit boek een waar eerbetoon aan de 17e-eeuwse Nederlandse meesterstukken."-- Provided by publisher.

Book Description
Revolusi! is the book accompanying the Rijksmuseum exhibition, in which the Indonesian struggle for independence is followed through the eyes of the people who were there. ‘Revolusi!’ explores the history of the Indonesian struggle for independence between 1945 and 1949. Central to this are the fighters, artists, diplomats, politicians, journalists, men, women and children who experienced the revolution first hand. Dutch and Indonesian authors show how the ideal of a free Indonesia was fervently pursued; how it was fought over, how negotiations took place, how propaganda was carried out and how the revolution changed people’s lives. In this way ‘Revolusi!’ presents a range of personal and collective experiences, told from multiple points of view: from Indonesian and Dutch perspectives as well as those of the groups and individuals in between, with an eye towards the international power arena. It is published in collaboration with the Rijksmuseum. The contemporary works of art, historical objects, propaganda posters, films, photographs and archival documents that accompany these stories testify to a turbulent past.

Book Description
From 1650 to 1900 Paris was the undisputed center of fashion and taste in Europe. Home to a unique concentration of artists, designers, patrons, critics, and a keen buying public, Paris was the city where trends were made and where novel types of objects, devised for new ways of life, were invented. This book traces the wonderful story of Parisian decorative arts from the reign of Louis XIV to the triumph of art nouveau, through a selection of 150 breathtaking, and often little-known, masterpieces from the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. It features an exhilarating mixture of furniture, gilt bronze, tapestries, silver, watches, snuff-boxes, jewellery, Sèvres porcelain, and other ceramics, as well as some design drawings and engravings. Specially taken photographs reveal the daring design and beautiful execution of the work of some of the greatest artists and craftsmen of their time. Reinier Baarsen discusses the history and significance of each object, presenting the findings of much new research. Published in association with the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam
