The seventeenth century was a time of exceptional mobility for
Netherlandish artists. This mobility had a profound impact on
artistic developments, stimulating innovation and creativity in the
Netherlands as well as abroad. Whereas most artists undertook a
relatively short study trip, others decided to settle down and
shape their life in a new environment. This study traces the
integration process - as artists and as migrants in general - of
Aert Mytens, Louis Finson, Abraham Vinck, Hendrick De Somer and
Matthias Stom in Naples between 1575 and 1655. Departing from the
idea that the experience of every migrant is specific to their
background and skills, The Neapolitan Lives and Careers of
Netherlandish Immigrant Painters (1575-1655) examines the
challenges each of these five artists faced, the choices they made
and the opportunities they grasped. The dynamics of art and society
in Naples, the bustling capital of the Spanish viceroyalty, forms
the context for their lives and careers.
