Daring and innovative as a painter, printmaker, and draftsman, he created powerful character studies, genre scenes, landscapes, formal portraits, and religious and allegorical images that were widely praised and valued during his lifetime. This beautiful book, the first overview of the full range of Lievens? career, features more than 50 paintings? many of them newly discovered in private collections? and more than 75 prints and drawings, providing a reassessment of his place in the history of art.
