The question whether or not seventeenthcentury painters such as Rembrandt and Rubens created the paintings which were later sold under their names; has caused many a heated debate. Much is still unknown about the ways in which paintings were produced; assessed; priced; and marketed. For example; did contemporary connoisseurs expect masters such as Rembrandt to paint their works entirely by their own hand? Who was credited with the ability to assess paintings? How did a paintingrsquo;s price relate to its quality? And how did connoisseurship change as the art market became increasingly complex? The contributors to this essential volume trace the evolution of connoisseurship in the booming art market of the seventeenth- and eighteenth centuries. Among them are the renowned Golden Age scholars Eric Jan Sluijter; Hans Van Miegroet and Neil De Marchi. It is not to be missed by anyone with an interest in the Old Masters and the early modern art market.

And for practice every day. Thank you. bye3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Excellent. Better than I expected. actuallyBy MusicFreakI bought this book because Ive been practicing on the couch as I watch tv for years. This is not ALL my practice. but watching tv or a movie is a good time to mindlessly rattle off patterns and work on stamina and such.This book delivers on its prommise. with clever exercises and ideas. It even includes a whole hand/finger workout you do *without* an instrument. Perfect not only for couch vegging out. but when youre in a waiting room. or on a boring family reunion. Theyre almost imperceptible if you do them right.I think this book could very well be used as a primer for beginners. I mean. Im sure that starting with hand/finger exercises right off the bat can only help a beginner develop finger dexterity. It has a very basic notation and tab explanation. and it covers the major scale. its diatonic triads. and major and minor pentatonics. Hell. ENTIRE CAREERS have been built off of that knowledge alone! If youre a bass player. get this book.
