Abstract

In this sense, De Jonge's following essay, discussing the milieu of Mone and Ordoñez, is a good example of the thoughtful and clever ordering of the volume: focusing on the artistic network mechanism, De Jonge showcases the artistic exchange, specifically architectural, between Spain and the Netherlands in the early decades of the sixteenth century. [...]Abigail D. Newman's closing article poses an intriguing supposition that in the absence of guilds or art academies in Spain, Spanish art-writers not only contributed to the promotion of artists’ status but also to their sense of collegiality, collaboration, and community. Notwithstanding, Netherlandish Art and Luxury Goods is a magnificently produced, richly illustrated, and carefully edited volume that provides a wide scope of case studies and subjects, while succeeding in outlining some central concerns. [...]the book offers the reader a progressive, linear reading by thematic order and continuity between the different chapters.
