A lavishly illustrated survey of seventeenth-century Dutch art focuses on the country's "Golden Age," which was dominated by the likes of Hals, Rembrandt, Ruisdael, Steen, and Vermeer.

On the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the founding of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, an exhibition gathering many of the finest existing examples of Dutch 17th-century art has been staged, mixing works owned by the museum and others on loan from many institutions around the world. Researchers at the Rijksmuseum provide descriptive entries for each of more than 200 objects, including some interpretation of meaning, history of the object since creation, and biography of the artist. The reproductions, in color for all the main pieces, tend to be a little dark, however, so that some of the details mentioned are difficult to see. Still, because the information presented is fairly basic and all major artists of this seminal period are included, this catalog serves well as an overview of the Golden Age in Dutch art. It is also reasonably priced for a work of this size. Recommended for most general libraries and all art collections."Kathryn Wekselman, M.Ln., Cincinnati, OH
