{"product_id":"pieter-de-hooch-wayne-franits-9780892368440","title":"Pieter de Hooch: A Woman Preparing Bread and Butter for a Boy","description":"In the hush of early morning, a dutiful mother butters bread for her young son, who patiently stands at her side. This splendid painting captures a trivial moment in a family's daily routine and makes it almost sacrosanct. \u003cem\u003eA Woman Preparing Bread and Butter for a Boy\u003c\/em\u003e was executed by the Dutch painter Pieter de Hooch (1629-1684) between 1661 and 1663. The J. Paul Getty Museum's canvas is one of the artist's many pictures depicting women and children engaged in daily activities.\u003cbr\u003e This book examines the painting in relation to the artist's life and work, exploring his stylistic development and his complex relationship to other painters in the Dutch Republic. The author places the subject matter of the painting within the broader context of seventeenth-century Dutch concepts of domesticity and child rearing and ties it to social and cultural developments in the Netherlands during the second half of the seventeenth century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wayne Franits\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0892368446\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780892368440\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e J.
