Reviews

'Woodland Imagery is a beautiful piece of writing. Akin to the living objects that it treats, the book branches out unconfinedly from its core, moving towards the light along varied and lively paths. The author writes in economical sentences pleasing in cadence and rhythm. Her descriptions of woodland paintings are notably sensitive, delightful, and revealing. Academic jargon and endnotes are held to a minimum. These features make the book a joy to read accessible to a broad audience.' – David A. Levine, Historians of Netherlandish Art Reviews
