Extensive and detailed cross referencing between the paintings, text and index shows the artists's themes and techniques, as well as providing relevant social and biographical details.The Flemish painters had a richness of spirit that merited celebration transcending the conventions that governed painting at the time. They showed that nature was a fit subject of art, a picturesque subject, and that painting was better able than the other arts to depict and reveal nature. None of these painters sought slavishly to reproduce what was in front of their eyes. All were creators: starting from visual observation, they invented the forms of the picturesque objects which they arranged on the surface of their pictures. Moved by the same spirit, by the same concerns, they expressed themselves each according to his individual genius.For Windows (32-bit Systems) / Mac (Power Macintosh: OS 9 or Below) [*Please review compatibility/platform sections in 'What You Get']
