SOME NORTHERN EUROPEAN HIGHLIGHTS OF THE FAIR. For more details please visit: tefaf.com/fairs/tefaf-maastricht

NOW IN ITS thirty-sixth year, the European Fine Art Foundation’s Maastricht event still remains the world’s most distinguished commercial art fair, embracing most periods of artistic endeavour from the prehistoric to the contemporary.

Here, in line with the theme of this issue, we show a small selection of fine objects that have been created in Northern Europe. In fact, due to the fair’s location in Maastricht, works from the Dutch, Belgian, German Austrian and French schools have always been a strength.

In the next (March) issue the TEFAF highlights will be drawn from Southern Europe and other parts of the world. We will also reveal details of new exhibitors in the ‘Showcase’ section and the beneficiaries of the annual TEFAF Museum Restoration Fund.

At the time of going to press the vetting process had not been completed. However, before the doors open, all works of art will have been subjected to rigorous inspection by a panel of experts looking for quality, condition and authenticity. This meticulous process ensures that visitors can purchase works with a high degree of confidence.

Simiolus

The current volume of Simiolus marks a moment of transition. It is the first produced by a slightly rejuvenated board of editors, headed by Ruben Suykerbuyk, and it is with enormous gratitude that we thank retiring members Peter Hecht and the greatly missed Ger Luijten for their hard work and devotion in safeguarding the quality and production of our journal through the last decades. It is also the last volume to appear in print only, since we will be offering supplementary digital subscriptions and access as of volume 45 (2023). Do send your name and e-mail address to info@simiolus.nl if you are interested, and follow us on Instagram to stay informed.

As usual, the upcoming issue will include a set of papers addressing different topics and periods, ranging from new data on Jan Breughel I’s visit to Prague in 1604 to Hans Memling’s reception in

Netherlands quarterly for the history of art

Bruges around 1900. We are also still accepting submissions for the Haboldt-Mutters Prize of 2022, the call for which is open until 28 February 2023.

Simiolus is published in English, and pays for the cost of translation of papers submitted in Dutch, German, French or Italian which we have agreed to produce. But to go on providing that service while retaining our very modest subscription fee, we do need your support. So please urge your library to subscribe or continue subscribing, and/or take out a subscription yourself!

Institutions pay € 100 a year and individuals pay € 60. Visit Simiolus.nl for the conditions of subscription and information on how to advertise, where to send your copy and how to order the backsets not yet in JSTOR

Vermeer and the Art of Love

By Aneta Georgievska-Shine £39.95 • $59.99

Includes 93 colour illustrations

This is the first book to explore the theme of love in Vermeer’s oeuvre, not merely in a romantic sense but also as a spiritual attitude towards the visible world. Georgievska-Shine uncovers how Vermeer challenges the dichotomies between ‘good’ and ‘bad’ love, the sensual and the spiritual, placing him within the context of his contemporaries and providing a fascinating insight into his unique understanding and interpretation of the subject.
