Patinir: Essays and Critical Catalogue

Catalogue published to accompany the Prado’s first exhibition devoted to this enigmatic Flemish artist, considered the forerunner of landscape painting. Featuring a total of 48 paintings, 22 by Patinir and the remainder by his most important predecessors and followers, the exhibition and the accompanying catalogue offer the first opportunity to see most of this unique painter’s work together. Patinir is little known to the wider public, possibly due to his small oeuvre and the fact that few collections contain a sizeable group of his paintings. This has made the study of his art difficult up to now, even for specialists. Arising from the research carried out in the preparation of this exhibition, its curator is also responsible for the publication of a catalogue raisonne of Patinir’s work, which aims to become the principal source of reference on this subject for specialists in Flemish art.
