CODART proudly presents its summer issue of the CODART eZine. The eZine is an interactive digital newsletter on Dutch and Flemish art in museums worldwide.

The ninth issue of the eZine focuses on dress, costumes and fashion. It contains articles on the costume collections of Modemuseum Hasselt and the Gemeentemuseum in The Hague, as well as an article about the costumes and accessories depicted by Rubens, the Northern armors in the collection of the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, and the renewed presentation of lace in the Gruuthusemuseum in Bruges.
