Catalogue Raisonne of the Works of the Most Eminent Dutch Painters of the Seventeenth Century e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Jacob Van Ruisdael, Meindert Hobbema, Adriaen van de Velde, and Paulus Potter, with their pupils and imitators, are the masters who have been treated in this volume on the same principles as the masters whose works found admission to the three preceding volumes. For the fifth volume the works of Gerard ter Borch, Caspar Netscher, Pieter van Slingeland, Gottfried Schalcken, and Eglon Hendrik van der Neer have been described, and Rembrandt and Nicolaes Maes have been taken in hand for the sixth volume.<br><br>The critical notice of the second volume b yE. W. Moes, in the Monatshefte fur Kunstwissenschaft, iii.(1910), vols. viii. and ix. pp. 348 seq., has again provided me with many notable corrections, which will find suitable consideration in the supplement to be published at the end of this series. Other corrections, for which the critic fails to give his authority, I must regard with reserve, because a careful examination of a large number of his statements have shown me that his assertions, as in his criticism of the first volume, far too often lack any foundation in fact. I have been constrained to point out these mistakes in an article entitled A Defence, attached to the Monatshefte for December 1910. I must therefore ask those who consult my book, and who have seen the critical notice by Moes, to refer to this article.
