Nearly 70 essays by colleagues and former students form this Festschrift, published in honor of Seymour Slive, Gleason Professor of Fine Arts, emeritus, former director of the Art Museums, and distinguished authority on 17th-century Dutch art. Though most essays deal with the arts in the Netherlands during the 16th and 17th centuries, the contributions cover a broad range in the history of art from the Middle Ages to the 20th century. The variety reflects Seymour Slive's boundless interests and is a tribute to the expansive and generous spirit that has inspired so many of today's curators and academics.
