About this book

In the Dutch language, Handeling refers to the manual use of a tool (style), but also means action, and is directly associated with the motor activity of the whole body. The performative element of color application was a focus of practical interest for late Rembrandtists such as Arent de Gelder and also figured in Samuel van Hoogstraten’s theory. For the first time, this study examines the theory and practice of Handeling during the period.

  • Discusses Handeling and the late Rembrandtists
  • Portrays brushwork as a cognitive process
  • Presents color application as action in the early modern era

Reviews

"Judiciously and effectively using the art literature of the long Renaissance, the author elucidates the relationship of thought and action in the process of painting, focusing on the artists who trained with Rembrandt. [...] wide-ranging, insightful, and engaging study [...]"
Amy Golahny in: Renaissance Quarterly, Volume LXXI, No. 2, pp. 684-685
