Abstract

This contribution presents a much-needed overview of Netherlandish workshop activities in Rome, and a reevaluation of their impact on the cultural environment of the city. Focusing on the workshops of Paul Bril, Herman van Swanevelt, Vincent Adriaenssen Leckerbetien (‘Il Manciola’), Cornelis Bloemaert II, and the now obscure painter Salomon Backereel, it elucidate the process by which these and other Dutch and Flemish artists trained aspiring painters and contributed to the overall educational program of the city. Not only is there more information about how their workshops functioned, but also these artists exemplify the status and professional activities of many Netherlandish artists in the city.
