Review(s)

"This volume is likely to become a standard work on Bles and, more generally, sixteenth-century northern landscape painting for years to come, broadening the art historical canon and updating antiquated scholarly narratives." (Achim Timmerman in The HNA Review of Books, vol.17, n°2, November 2000, p.37-38)
