The periodical Oud Holland is the oldest surviving art-historical periodical in the world. Founded by A.D. de Vries and N. der Roever in 1883, it has appeared virtually without interruption ever since. It is entirely devoted to the visual arts in the Netherlands up to the mid-nineteenth century and has featured thousands of scholarly articles by Dutch and foreign authors, including numerous pioneering art-historical studies. Almost from the magazine’s inception, the publication of archival information concerning Dutch artists has played an important role. From 1885 to his death in 1946, the renowned art historian Dr. Abraham Bredius set a standard of excellence for Oud Holland. Many other well-known Dutch art historians have also served as editor of the periodical. Oud Holland is published four times a year. Every volume is richly illustrated, has at least 200 pages, and comes with a comprehensive printed index of names. Most texts in Oud Holland are printed in English. Articles in other languages, like Dutch, French or German, have an English summary. The editorial board is composed of Prof. Dr. Y. Bruijnen, Drs. E. Buijsen, Prof. Dr. R.E.O. Ekkart, Prof. Dr. C.W. Fock, Prof. Dr. V. Manuth, and F.G. Meijer. From early 2008 with the first number of Volume 121, Brill will be the new publisher of this periodical. In close cooperation with the RKD (Netherlands Institute for Art History)
Exhibition - Stedelijk Museum De Lakenhal Stad van boeken: zeven eeuwen lezen in Leiden (City of books: seven centuries of reading in Leiden) The Internet has tremendous impact on our lives. Imagine the significance of the manuscript in the Middle Ages and printing in the early modern times! In cooperation with Leiden University, De Lakenhal presents 200 extraordinary books that changed the worldview, encompassing seven centuries of reading, of producing and trading in texts in Leiden. National and international libraries and museums have lent their rare items for this exhibition. These include the Discours de la méthode by René Descartes, published in Leiden in 1637, and the only preserved copy of the Historie van den Vier Heemskinderen from the Bayerische Staats Bibliothek in Munich, printed in Leiden in 1508. The exhibition also highlights popular Dutch children’s books, and Panorama magazine. Panorama was printed by the Leidse Rotogravure Maatschappij until well into the 20th century. Films shows the switch from manuscripts to print, and explain how printing works operated in the previous century. The exhibition ends with the latest digital developments. This completes the circle, as writing in the Middle Ages was a solo activity, just like working on the computer is today.
