"The gorgeous reproductions, with many large details, are as good as they come with a text that's readable and informative."--Seattle Times
"This is a truly gorgeous book with more than 200 sumptuous reproductions, a showcase for these master painters of the Northern Renaissance whose system of painting in transparent layers yielded colors of saturation and depth never before seen. The color is rich and exact and the detailed plates show every nuance of the gold and damask cloth depicted in these luminous painted surfaces."--Sue Hubbard, The Independent
"This is essentially a book that could be transformed into an astonishing exhibition."--Martin Gayford, Sunday Telegraph
"Though careful to incorporate the latest scholarly findings, de Vos keeps the tone lively and readable. . . . The Flemish Primitives deserves high acclaim as a model of a sumptuous and satisfying approach to artbook publishing."--Ann Landi, ArtNews

Intensely realistic, piercingly beautiful, the art of the Flemish Primitives inspires powerful emotional responses Painted during the fifteenth century, in the southern Netherlands, these influential and enduring works helped establish the foundations of modern European painting.

Working at the hub and heart of the Burgundian realm, these artists ushered in the triumph of realism Their new system of painting in transparent layers yielded colors of a saturation and depth never before seen and imbued their sensual human forms with a stunning luminosity They developed new symbolic associations, experimented with light, and expressed the cultural changes taking place around them, including a heightened spirituality and the emergence of a wealthy bourgeoisie. Dirk de Vos's fluidly written text highlights the artists' remarkable technical innovations while also considering the rapidly evolving economic and social milieu in which they worked The result is both a thoughtful assessment of some of Europe's greatest masterpieces and a glorious tribute to the artists who bestowed them on the world.
