An expert look at the life and captivating work of the Dutch
painter Nicolaes Maes, Rembrandt's most famous pupil This book
offers a close look at the art of Dutch Golden Age painter Nicolaes
Maes (1634-1693). One of Rembrandt's most talented students, Maes
began by painting biblical scenes in the style of his famous
teacher. He later produced extraordinary genre pieces, in which the
closely observed actions of the main figure, often a woman, have a
hushed, almost monumental character. Maes also depicted mothers
with children or older women praying or sleeping; such works have
placed him among the most popular painters of the Dutch Golden Age.
From around 1660, Maes turned exclusively to portraiture, and his
elegant style attracted wealthy and eminent clients from Dordrecht
and Amsterdam. This generously illustrated volume is the first in
English to cover the full range of his repertoire. The
authors-curators from the National Gallery, London, and the
Mauritshuis, The Hague-bring extensive knowledge to bear for the
benefit of specialists and the general public. Published by
National Gallery Company in association with the Mauritshuis, The
Hague, and Waanders Publishers, Zwolle/Distributed by Yale
University Press Exhibition Schedule: Mauritshuis (October 17,
2019-January 19, 2020) National Gallery, London (February 22-May
