Includes bibliographical references (pages 353-358) and index.Introduction: The way it had to be -- Where to start. Rembrandt: the shadow master ; Jan Lievens: not Rembrandt ; Ferdinand Bol and Govert Flinck: who is an artist? ; Carel Fabritius: the thunderclap ; Johannes Vermeer: the fingerprint beneath the frame -- The picture about anything.

Rachel Ruysch: my manly art heroine ; Adriaen Coorte: art is -- Afterword: Going back home."Arriving as a young writer in an ancient Dutch town, Benjamin Moser found himself visiting ... the country's great museums. Inside these old buildings, he discovered the remains of the Dutch Golden Age, and began to unearth the strange, inspiring, and terrifying stories of the artists who gave shape to one of the most luminous moments in the history of human creativity. Beyond the sainted Rembrandt--who harbored a startling darkness--and the mysterious Vermeer--whose true subject, it turned out, was lurking in plain sight--Moser got to know a whole galaxy of geniuses ... Year after year, as he tried to make a life for himself in the Netherlands, Moser found friends among these centuries-dead artists. And he found that they, too, were struggling with the same questions that he was. Why do we make art? What even is art, anyway--and what is an artist? What does it mean to succeed as an artist, and what does it mean to fail? Is art a consolation--or a mortal danger? The Upside-Down World is an invitation to ask these questions, and to turn them on their heads: to look, and then to look again. This is Holland and its great artists as we've never seen them before"--Page 2 of cover.
