Description
Capturing the human in painting

Frans Hals is one of the most important portrait painters of all time. Like Rembrandt, the famous Dutch Baroque masters striking portraits of the bourgeoisie and social outsiders are distinguished by their extraordinary vividness and accurate depiction. His sketch-like paintings, executed with bold brushstrokes, had a decisive influence on modernist painting. This comprehensive publication coincides with the first major survey exhibition of Hals oeuvre in more than thirty years.
