- This monograph is the first study of Floris in over forty years, and the first ever in English. The significance of the book lies in its critical reassessment of the concept of a ‘Northern Renaissance’. By examining Floris’s international humanist network it proposes a new model for understanding the hybridity of his art as an expression of the precariousness of Netherlandish identity in the years preceding the outbreak of the Dutch Revolt. In twelve chapters and a checklist the artist’s works, it maps Floris’s radical departure from Netherlandish visual traditions against the embattled terrain of political rebellion and religious reform.
