“Looking for Love in the Low Countries”
During the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, Dutch artists addressed a variety of themes associated with lust and love, ranging from the proposition of prostitutes to the promise of marital bliss. These tantalizing images offered ample opportunities to delight in human folly, to recognize the risks of romance, and envision the possibility of matrimonial harmony.
