Das stille Leben der Insekten. Malerei, Entomologie und Ökologie in der Republik der Vereinigten Niederlande
In the organizer's words:
Although often overlooked at first glance, many Dutch flower still lifes are teeming with insects. This article will take an in-depth look at these seemingly insignificant creatures. The aim is to place the artistic interest in insects in the wider context of entomological developments in the Netherlands in the 17th century, also with the aim of shedding light on their often underestimated role in the pictorial effect of these paintings.
Lecture by Prof. Dr. Joris van Gastel as part of the exhibition "Insect Knowledge" at the Bibliotheca Albertina.
