Offers a chronological account of political engagement in works by the early modern Northern European painters Jan van Eyck, Pieter Bruegel the Elder, Peter Paul Rubens, and Frans Snyders. This book examines the ways in which these Netherlandish painters seized on that imagery and creatively transformed it into the materials of art.
