After 1550, there was an increase in majolica - ceramics developed in Italy and Spain. After a while, Flemish potters started to make imitations. Because of the Spanish occupation, religious persecution and the fall of Antwerp in 1585, a number of potters fled from Antwerp to Delft and they provided the origins of the Delftware industry. Imitation porcelain In 1602, the Netherlands became acquainted with porcelain from China. It became so popular that it turned into serious competition for the local potters. History Between 1600 and 1800 Delft was one of the most important ceramics producers in Europe. Delft full of potters This illustrated map shows the sites of every potter ever located in Delft.

Paul Cezanne - The complete works Maalausmateriaalit flaamilaisessa taiteessa Staged Approach: Early Flemish Painting Artists have used oil paints since the eighth century, but their widespread use dates from the early fifteenth century, when Flemish painters like Broederlam and van Eyck built up exquisite works in repeated layers of paint, often as glazes over thin layers of opaque oil paint. Oil dried more slowly and evenly than tempera, allowing the artist the time to correct or extend his work, producing a more coherent and considered statement, with all aspects closely worked in. The first supports were panels of wood — poplar, oak, lime, beech, chestnut, cherry, pine and silver fir: all carefully prepared. Canvas was adopted by the Venetians, as wood tended to warp, and fresco to mildew, in the moist atmosphere of the lagoons. Body color was generally applied in a free, painterly way, and precise, detailed glazes added later.

Beestenmarkt The Beestenmarkt played an important role in the life of the parents of Johannes Vermeer. In 1591 his father Reynier Jansz. was born in the Nassau house at Beestenmarkt 26. Between the ages of 6 and 17, Reynier lived in the inn De Drie Hamers at number 14-14a. He went to Amsterdam to learn the trade of a silk-linen weaver and married Digna Baltens from Antwerp. The Markt A large part of Johannes Vermeer’s life unfolded on and around the Markt, the centre of a city with 25,000 inhabitants in those days. Voldersgracht Around 1628 Vermeer’s parents and their daughter Geertruy moved to the inn De Vliegende Vos at Voldersgracht 25. Old Church On the 16th of December 1675, Johannes Vermeer was buried in the family grave in the Oude Kerk, where three of his children who died young were also buried.

Pierre Auguste Renoir - The complete works Vermeer Centrum Delft Take a Virtual Tour of Hieronymus Bosch's Bewildering Masterpiece The Garden of Earthly Delights Art historians have argued about the meaning of The Garden of Earthly Delights---Hieronymus Bosch's enormously sized, lavishly detailed, and compellingly grotesque late 14th- or early 15th-century triptych---more or less since the painter's death. What does it really say about the appearance and fall of man on Earth that it seems to depict? How seriously or ironically does it say it? Does it offer us a warning against temptation, or a celebration of temptation? Does it take a religious or anti-religious stance? Panofsky said that in the 1950s, by which era he summed up the accumulated efforts to decode Bosch as having "bored a few holes through the door of the locked room; but somehow we do not seem to have discovered the key." via Metafilter Related Content: Dutch Book From 1692 Documents Every Color Under the Sun: A Pre-Pantone Guide to Colors 300+ Etchings by Rembrandt Now Free Online, Thanks to the Morgan Library & Museum 16th-Century Amsterdam Stunningly Visualized with 3D Animation
