This publication discusses the life and work of Gerrit van Honthorst (1592-1656) who was a major innovator for Dutch art during the first half of the seventeenth century. His work consists of two distinct categories; on the one hand his religious, mythological and genre subjects, and on the other, his numerous portraits. This long awaited study discusses the entire career and work of the artist. It includes a complete catalogue raisonne of Honthorst's extensive oeuvre. His accepted works are illustrated in black and white, some in color as well. The major collateral material is also reproduced.
