Summary:
The Flemish Community?s art collection is kept out of sight and far from the galleries of the big museums. It includes a number of major works and many historical documents. This publication puts the spotlight on a selection of these masterpieces and curiosities, revealing the diversity of a unique and well-preserved collection. Well-known and prized pieces are shown alongside unknown treasures. Past and present are interwoven with a variety of different perspectives. This book takes a look at the results of years of collecting activity and at the diversity of art in Flanders.00Koenraad Jonckheere is professor of art history at Ghent University and author of the bestseller A New History of Western Art ?
