Books in the Studies in Netherlandish Visual Culture series

Art and the Culture of Love in Seventeenth-Century Holland offers analysis of paintings and prints of 'garden parties', merry companies, courting couples, and even landscape etchings that have amorous overtones. Nevitt reconstitutes the viewpoints from which these works were understood, taking seriously their moral and celebratory aspects.

Sight and Spirituality in Early Netherlandish Painting examines the importance of vision as a narrative and thematic concern in works by different artists. Depicting religious visual experience, these works alluded to the imperceptibility of the divine and implicated the viewer's own experience as part of a larger spiritual and intellectual process.
