Softcover. Zustand: VG+. Red and color-illustrated glossy wraps, French flaps, 208 pp. Profuse illustrations in color and bw. "Just as e-mail now dominates written communication, in the 17th century, the writing of personal letters became widespread and fashionable. Although letters had long existed, the notion that they could convey private feelings and emotions suddenly captured the popular imagination and transformed personal communication. During this period, not only was Holland the most literate country in Europe and a leading publishing center, but it was also the focus of an explosion of epistolary activity. In turn, the 17th-c. Dutch genre painters became the first to deict anonymous people writing, reading, dispatching and receiving letters. The catalogue is the first comprehensive study of the subject and relates the depiction of letter themes to the culture, lliterature, and social history of the Netherlands as well as such practical developments as the spread of the Dutch postal system." With 3 main essays, a list of artists, and the catalogue. Truly a fascinating subject and catalogue! Published to accompany the exhibition at the National Gallery of Ireland and the Bruce Museum of Arts and Science, October 2003 - May 2004. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 129703

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
