Pintura holandesa. Catálogo razonado

The publication of the first catalogue raisonné of the collection, written by Teresa Posada Kubissa, Curator of the Department of Flemish and Northern Schools (up to 1700), encouraged the organisation of this exhibition. For the first time, the exhibition brings together 56 of the most important paintings from this little-known aspect of the Museum’s collections. While for historical reasons some of the greatest names of Dutch art are not represented in the Prado, many of the most celebrated and highly esteemed painters of the day are to be found.

With the publication of this catalogue, the Prado continues its series of publications launched with the catalogue raisonné of its El Greco holdings.  As a result of years of preparatory study and research into the style, technique and documentation of the Dutch paintings, and the restoration of a large number of them, the new catalogue now includes 100 works attributed to 17th-century Dutch painters and excludes 26 traditionally attributed to that school. In addition, it proposes 19 new attributions.

The catalogue includes one hundred works faithfully represented and widely discussed, biographies and details of the signatures of the artists and an index of names.

The introductory essay and catalogue cards are translated into English.
