"Romeyn de Hooghe (1645-1708) produced a world of art in many forms, including paintings, sculpture, medallic art, and temporary decorations for royal events. Above all, however, De Hooghe is known for his etchings, and he completed a staggering four thousand-plus plates in his lifetime. Active at a time when the small – but wealthy and powerful – Dutch Republic was engaged in a host of interactions, warlike and otherwise, with its European neighbors and far-flung colonial interests, De Hooghe offers a fascinating picture of the later Dutch Golden Age in all its complexity. . . . From his etching needle spring complex allegories praising or lampooning powerful figures of the day like William III of Orange and Louis XIV, city maps and sea charts, accounts of battles and natural disasters both at home and abroad, rendered in compelling style. . . . But along with his flair for the dramatic, De Hooghe also brought erudition and intellectual subtlety to his many book illustrations (the largest single group of prints he created) and an admirable visual ability to distill the subject matter of a varied slate of texts."
