Historians of Netherlandish Art is pleased to announce the publication of the second issue of JHNA , the Journal of Historians of Netherlandish Art (www.jhna.org).

JHNA is the electronic journal of Historians of Netherlandish Art. Founded this year, the journal publishes issues of peer-reviewed articles two times per year. These articles focus on art produced in the Netherlands (north and south) during the early modern period (c. 1400-c.1750), and in other countries and later periods as they relate to Netherlandish art. This includes studies of painting, sculpture, graphic arts, tapestry, architecture, and decoration, from the perspectives of art history, art conservation, museum studies, historiography, and collecting history.
