DUTCH BAROQUE
Religious and economic conditions in seventeenth‑century Holland effected artistic patronage and production in the following ways:
Amsterdam had the highest per capita income in Europe and enjoyed widespread prosperity across a large proportion of society, expanding the range of art patronage.
Political power increasingly passed into the hands of an urban patrician class of merchants. Art patronage catered to the tastes of a middle-class audience.
Calvinism demanded a puritanical rejection of art in churches, and thus artists produced relatively little religious art in the Dutch Republic, although it was tolerated when artists created it.

Frans HalsArchers of Saint Hadrianca. 1633oil on canvasapproximately 6 ft. 9 in. x 11 ft.
Frans Hals was the leading painter of the Haarlem school, and specialized in group portraitsThe main elements of his style that distinguish his works from those of his contemporaries is that he was less ordered and regimented in his depiction of the sitters than his contemporaries. Each man is both a troop member and an individual. The figures look in multiple directions. He uses the uniformity of attire to create a lively rhythm.

Rembrandt van RijnReturn of the Prodigal Sonca. 1665oil on canvas8 ft. 8 in. x 6 ft. 9 in.
Three adjectives or phrases that would contrast Rembrandt’s religious works to Counter-Reformation art works:
Spiritual stillness.Humanity and humility of Jesus.Psychological insight and sympathy.
He refined light and shade into finer and finer nuances until they blended with one another, a development from earlier painters’ use of abrupt lights and darks. A greater fidelity to actual appearances is created because the eyes perceive light and dark not as static but as always subtly changing.
His use of light and shade effected the mood of his later portraits in that the variation of light and shade, subtly modulated, could be read as emotional differences: “the psychology of light.” The prevailing moods are that of quietness, tranquil meditation, philosophical resignation, and musing recollection.

Rembrandt van RijnChrist with the Sick around Him, Receiving the Children (Hundred Guilder Print)ca. 1649etching11 x 15 1/4 in.
etching.A copper plate is covered in a layer of wax or varnish. The artist incises
the design into this surface with an etching needle or pointed tool, exposing the metal below. The plate is then immersed in acid, which eats away the exposed parts of the metal, acting the same as the burin in engraving.
Advantages etching has over engraving;It is more manageable than engraving and allows greater freedom in drawing the design. The medium’s softness gives etchers greater carving freedom and offering the greatest subtlety of line and tone.

Four characteristics of Et in Arcadia Ego are typical of Poussin's fully developed Classical style;
Figures based on classical statuary.The compact, balanced grouping of the figures.The even light.The thoughtful, reserved, and mournful mood.
Subjects Poussin considered to be appropriate for paintings done in the "grand manner” were battles, heroic actions, and religious themes.
