Hendrick ter Brugghen by Natasha Seaman

Hendrick ter Brugghen’s work forms a key chapter in the history of 17th-century Dutch art. A significant follower of Caravaggio, Ter Brugghen was also important in the development of both Rembrandt and Vermeer. Yet until now there has been no accessible survey of his work. This important book provides a comprehensive overview of the artist’s life and work while also offering new interpretations and insights, incorporating current art-historical research.

Seaman explores Hendrick ter Brugghen's few known works from before 1620, his embrace – and transformation – of Caravaggio’s intense naturalism before 1625, and his subsequent move towards a more visually pleasing style. The book also outlines the artist’s impact on the work of Rembrandt and Vermeer and the reception of his work in later centuries.

Natasha Seaman is Professor of Art History at Rhode Island College. Previous publications include The Religious Paintings of Hendrick ter Brugghen: Reinventing Christian Painting after the Reformation in Utrecht (2012).
