Introduction

This bibliography is intended as a guide to the most essential reference literature for the curator of Dutch and Flemish art. It is not intended to be an exhaustive bibliography, but a select one, an aid to curators and librarians, especially in smaller institutions, in acquiring the books that will be most useful to them.

Originally compiled for CODART by Roman Koot, former librarian of the Faculty of Arts Library, Utrecht University, now head of public services and chief curator of the library and foreign art, Netherlands Institute for Art History (RKD), The Hague.
