Art historian Lorne Campbell assembles highly sophisticated scientific and historical evidence to reconstruct in detail how these painters lived and worked, organized their studios, gathered and employed reference materials, used pigments and media, and marketed their pictures. Campbell's analysis of the artists' techniques and working practices marks a major advance in current understanding and appreciation of the extraordinary achievements of the early Netherlandish painters.
