At the core of the volume is a reconstruction of Johannes’s critical reception, biography
and career, with particular emphasis on his decisive Italian sojourn in Rome and Venice.
This monograph offers the first comprehensive study devoted to Johannes van Bronchorst (Utrecht, 1627 – Amsterdam, 1656), a painter long eclipsed by his more celebrated
father, Jan Gerritsz. van Bronchorst. Although his career was cut short by an early death
at the age of twenty-nine, Johannes emerges as a key figure in mid-seventeenth-century
Dutch painting, occupying a pivotal position in the transition from Caravaggesque naturalism to classicism.
Tommaso Borgogelli is an art historian specialising in Caravaggesque, Flemish and
Dutch painting, with a particular focus on the artistic exchange between naturalism
and classicism in Italy and the Low Countries. He has published widely on these
subjects in leading scholarly journals and has collaborated on several major exhibitions
within this field.
