Continuity, Innovation, and Connoisseurship brings
together revised versions of papers first presented at an international
symposium of the same name held at The Pennsylvania State University
in 1995. Noted Old Master experts were invited to discuss and contextualize
key sixteenth- and seventeenth-century paintings in the collection
of the Palmer Museum of Art. The papers shed new light on these
works, connecting them to important issues in the thematic and stylistic
development of Old Master paintings. This richly illustrated volume
also provides an informative introduction to the Palmer Museum's
Renaissance and Baroque collections.
