Publisher Synopsis
"Thanks to Peter Sutton whose groundbreaking scholarship has enlightened us about many other Dutch topics, including genre subjects, we now have access to fundamental information about Jan, in a handsome volume, with full-page color illustrations, that serves as a welcome and long-overdue addition to the literature, and accompanies the first exhibition devoted to the artist in twenty years. . . . This is without doubt the most comprehensive book on van der Heyden available, and it will not be eclipsed any time soon."--Adelheid M./i>--Adelheid M. Gealt "Eighteenth-Century Life " Read more...
