Van Dyck [Dutch]

Van Dyck Estelle M. Hurll, Excerpt from Van Dyck: A Collection of Fifteen Pictures, and a Portrait of the Painter The fame of Van Dyck's portraits has so far over shadowed that of his other works that his sacred pic tures are for the most part unfamiliar to the general pub lic. The illustrations for this little book are equally divided between portraits and subject-pieces, and it is hoped that the selection may give the reader some ade quate notion of the scope of the painter's art. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
