Excerpt from Catalogue of a Collection of Paintings by Dutch Masters of the Seventeenth Century The golden era of Dutch painting is compressed into the brief period between 162 5 and I 670, although three genera tions of masters lent their lustre to it - Frans Hals, born in I Rembrandt, born in I 606, and Jan Vermeer, born in 1632. If the art of the first generation owered late, and that of the third had an early close, it is due to the fact that a certain period - about two decades - was necessary for the development and establishment of a national art, and that in 1670 the French school made its victorious appearance, completely submerging the native painting. Unusually late was Hals' development, and Jan Vermeer died early in I 677. In this manner Rembrandt's productive era embraces almost completely that of the three generations, whose art but for his in uence could never have attained SO rich a development. Holland's contribution, during this golden age, to the universal progress of painting lay primarily in the fact that she freed it from its dependence upon the Church.
