Description for The Dutch Italianates: 17th-century Masterpieces from Dulwich Picture Gallery, London
Paperback. Hugely popular in their own time, the 'Dutch Italianates' fell out of favour in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. However, for the founders of Dulwich Picture Gallery, they were names to mention in the same breath as Rembrandt and Ruisdael.

Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 209 x 242 x 10. Weight in Grams: 474.
