Description:... Claudia Goldstein mines an interdisciplinary mix of sources to shed light on the art markets and cultural history of 16th-century Antwerp. Recontextualizing some of Bruegel's work within the cultural nexus of the dining room, she examines the function of early modern images for the people who owned and viewed them.
