The volume is richly illustrated, with carefully selected comparative illustrations.

Book Synopsis In His Milieu by : Amy Golahny
Download or read book In His Milieu written by Amy Golahny. This book was released on 2006. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gathered in honor of John Michael Montias (1928–2005), the foremost scholar on Johannes Vermeer and a pioneer in the study of the socioeconomic dimensions of art, the essays in In His Milieu are an essential contribution to the study of the social functions of making, collecting, displaying, and donating art. The nearly forty essays here by—all internationally recognized experts in the fields of art history and the economics of art—are especially revealing about the Renaissance and Baroque eras and present new material on such artists as Rembrandt, Van Eyck, Rubens, and da Vinci.
