An impressive collection of portraits and still life photographs from Dutch artists, this volume takes us on a journey of discovery of the astonishing precision and life of these photographs. Whether on a natural or human level, these Dutch artists have captured rare insights of faces, expressions, even immobility in motionless things, that make this collection one of the finest in the world. One of the first photographic collections to be exhibited in a museum instead of being the possession of private collectors, the Manfred Heiting Collection has benefited from the Rijksmuseum's knowledge and good taste, since it is now seriously collecting photography. It puts together all the great names of photography with their key works. This exceptional volume is a fascinating exploration of excellence in Dutch photography. 128 pages. 9.75 x 11.75 inches.
Lavishly illustrated with photographs from the collection, all captioned with additional information under each. Text in Dutch and English. Includes a history of Dutch art, as well as a catalog at end of volume.
