The Gouda Windows (1552-1572): Art and Catholic Renewal on the Eve
of the Dutch Revolt offers the first complete analysis of the cycle
of monumental Renaissance stained-glass windows donated to the Sint
Janskerk in Gouda, after a fire gutted it in 1552. Central among
the donors were King Philip II of Spain and Joris van Egmond,
Bishop of Utrecht, who worked together to reform the Church. The
inventor of the iconographic program, a close associate to the
bishop as well as the king, strove to renew Catholic art by taking
the words of Jesus as a starting point. Defining Catholic religion
based on widely accepted biblical truths, the ensemble shows that
the Mother Church can accommodate all true Christians.
