Intentional Alterations of Early Netherlandish Painting
All too often, museum visitors make the assumption that the paintings in our galleries are unchanged from the day that they were created hundreds of years ago. This is not the case, and there are distinctions to be made between the various types of changes that have occurred over time—between those that have happened naturally and those that have resulted from human intervention. The assessment of a given alteration—be it an addition or a subtraction—often necessitates a reconsideration of the painting's history, which in turn, can reveal helpful information about the function and importance of the work in its own time. This essay will discuss alterations found in Netherlandish paintings dating from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries in The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
