See images for condition. About the book >.>.> In Anthony Van Dyck as a Printmaker, Carl Depauw explores the intricate world of prints created by the renowned artist Anthony Van Dyck. This work delves into the significance of prints as a vulnerable form of art, which, despite their fragility, have been preserved over time due to their association with a master artist. This exhibition showcases prints that have remained cherished by collectors and institutions, emphasising the value placed on Van Dyck's impressions throughout history.The book highlights various dimensions of print preservation and classification, particularly the systematic approaches developed by curators in different parts of the world. While some collections have maintained the integrity of early approaches to print storage, others have inadvertently erased significant aspects of their historical context. Depauw examines how prints from the seventeenth century were intentionally produced with printed frames and decorative elements, revealing insights into their display and significance at the time. For instance, scenes depicted in paintings by noted contemporaries provide glimpses of how prints were integrated into domestic and gallery spaces, often accompanied by elaborate decorative borders.Additionally, the narrative includes discussions of specific works, such as the still lifes from the mid-seventeenth century that feature Van Dyck's engravings. The existence of a large art album, linked to Jodocus Hondius, serves as a focal point, leading to contemplations on whether it primarily showcased portraits or a broader spectrum of subjects. This exploration unveils the layered complexity of Van Dyck's prints, encouraging further appreciation of their artistic and historical significance. The publication serves as a valuable resource for collectors, historians, and enthusiasts of printmaking and Baroque art.
