In the last decade of his life, Anthony van Dyck (1599-1641)
undertook a printmaking project that changed the conventions of
portraiture. In a series later named the Iconography, he portrayed
artists alongside kings, courtiers, and diplomats-a radical
departure from preexisting conventions. He also depicted his
subjects in novel ways, focusing on their facial features often to
the exclusion of symbolic costumes or props. In addition to
illustrating approximately 60 works by Van Dyck and other artists
from his era-particularly Rembrandt-this catalogue traces the
artist's influence over hundreds of years. Showcasing both 17th
century portraits in a variety of media and portrait prints by a
wide range of artists spanning the 16th through the 20th
centuries-including Albrecht Durer, Hendrick Goltzius, Francisco de
Goya, Edgar Degas, and Jim Dine-the book demonstrates the indelible
mark that Van Dyck left on the genre. Distributed for the Art
Institute of Chicago Exhibition Schedule: Art Institute of Chicago
