The book is a study on Dutch painting, drawing and printmaking of
the 17th century, focused on interlocking its descriptive realism
with the visual strategy of illusion. The author analyzes this
relationship as a conjunction rather than an opposition.
Illusionistic compositional devices were current not only in
mythological, biblical and allegorical images but also in proper
realistic representations of the world. At the same time, many
visual inventions, which included illusionistic concepts, were
presented with persuasive realism of the forms. Thus, different
seventeenth-century Dutch artists - such as Hendrick Goltzius,
Hendrick Vroom, Rembrandt, Vermeer - attempted to produce "open
images" and to conduct a visual game with their beholders.
