Editorial Reviews
Review
'This is a handsome book, well illustrated and with enough colour plates to give the reader a thorough understanding of this import, but hitherto neglected, project.' Art Newspaper
'Hendrik's book makes it clear once more that the brothers paved the way for many later generations of landscape painters. This lavishly illustrated volume is indispensable for anyone interested in the incunabula of landscape painting in Rome.' Burlington Magazine

Review
"...richly illustrated...This superbly organized book will prove to be an indispensable resource for further study of landscape as an important philosophical and spiritual genre." College Art Association
