"In Painting Flanders Abroad: Flemish Art and Artists in Seventeenth-Century Madrid, Flemish immigrants and imported Flemish paintings cross the paths of Spanish kings, collectors, dealers, and artists in the Spanish court city, transforming the development and nature of seventeenth-century Spanish painting. Examining these Flemish transplants and the traces their interactions left in archival documents, collection inventories, art treatises, and most saliently Spanish "Golden Age" paintings, this book portrays Spanish society grappling with a long tradition of importing its favorite paintings while struggling to reimagine its own visual idiom. In the process, the book historicizes questions of style, quality, immigration, mobility, identity, and cultural exchange to define what the evolving and amorphous visual concept of "Flemishness" meant to Spanish viewers in an era long before the emergence of nationalism"--
Painting Flanders Abroad: Flemish Art and Artists in Seventeenth-Century Madrid traces how Flemish immigrant painters and imported Flemish paintings fundamentally transformed the development of Spanish taste, collecting, and art production in the Spanish “Golden Age.”
02 This innovative book presents a fresh view of fifteenth-century Netherlandish art and the significance of its contributions to contemporary Italian art, notably in such areas as oil painting, landscape, and portraiture. Focusing on Florence, a prime center of Renaissance culture, the book explores for the first time the profound impact of Netherlandish works on Italian painters including Leonardo, Perugino, and Ghirlandaio.Paula Nuttall discusses Italian ownership of Netherlandish paintings in the fifteenth century and the shared artistic concerns of Florentine and Netherlandish painters. She examines in depth the various means by which artistic contact occurred, the growth in demand for Netherlandish art in Florence, and the holdings of the Medici and other collectors. With particular emphasis on the period 1460–1500, when the vogue for Netherlandish painting was at its height, the author shows that the consequences of Italian exposure to Netherlandish art were far more sweeping than has been understood before.Paula Nuttall is an independent scholar. She teaches at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London and at other U.K. institutions. She is a specialist on relationships between Netherlandish painting and Italy and has published widely in this area.

His task is the more inviting if, as was the case in Flanders, compact and brilliant generations of artists succeed each other in a territory of limited extent. The productiveness of Flanders in this domain attracted attention at an early period, and many experts have undertaken to record all that was known of the lives of our painters. They found a valuable basis for their labours in the registers which the corporations of St. Luke kept of their apprentices and masters, and even in our own times these afford the most valuable evidences to art-historians. In the course of the nineteenth century emulation increased. The archives of states and cities, chronicles, and general literature were searched for the slightests details which threw light on the remoter periods. Facility of communication has multiplied the sources of information, and writers no longer consult only written or printed documents; they examine the works left by successive generations, they study pictures, sculpture, and architecture.
