Flemish and Dutch Artists in Early Modern England

By examining their production practices in a variety of genres-including manuscript illustration, glass painting and staining, tapestry manufacture, portrait painting, and engraving-this book explores how Netherlandish artists migrating to England in the early modern period overcame challenges raised by their outsider status. This study examines, for the first time in this context, the challenges of alien status to artistic production and the effectiveness of cooperation as a countermeasure.
