Author: Sutton, Peter C.
Featuring exquisite reproductions alongside entries by a preeminent scholar in the field, "Timeless Splendor" offers an invitation to explore works by Frans Hals, Jan Brueghel the Elder, Anthony van Dyck, Peter Paul Rubens among others. A scholarly resource, the publication includes detailed provenance, catalogue entries and artist biographies. All the works are drawn from the private collection of Susan and Matthew Weatherbie, donated to the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, in 2017. A woman gazing squarely at the artist, arm akimbo; a lush tablescape with oysters and sweets; a sweeping view of Haarlem under a grand sky; and an intimate tavern scene. These are just a few of the scenes from the 36-piece painting collection of Susan and Matthew Weatherbie—which, as a whole, celebrates the flourishing of the arts in Belgium and the Netherlands during the 17th century. The book also features reflections from the collectors themselves.
