Painting and Publishing as Cultural Industries: The Fabric of Creativity in the Dutch Republic, 1580-1800 (Amsterdam University Press 2016)
The Dutch Republic was a cultural powerhouse in the modern era, producing lasting masterpieces in painting and publishing-and in the process transforming those fields from modest trades to booming industries. This book asks the question of how such a small nation could become such a major player in those fields. Claartje Rasterhoff shows how industrial organisations played a role in shaping patterns of growth and innovations.
