| Summary: | This scholarly work challenges the traditional perception of Dutch visual culture as solely representative of order and everyday life by exploring the role of the sublime in Dutch art, architecture, and theater. The authors, Stijn Bussels and Bram Van Oostveldt, argue that Dutch art engaged with themes of exceptional heights, divine presence, and political grandeur, evoking feelings of both awe and fear. By examining the sublime's influence on Dutch visual culture, the book provides a nuanced understanding of how art can transcend conventional boundaries and evoke complex emotional responses. It is intended for scholars in art history, visual culture, architectural history, and cultural history, aiming to expand the academic discourse on the sublime in art. |
