"Festivals are a manifestation of joy and a moment of sociability aimed at creating and maintaining a sense of belonging. In the 16th and 17th centuries the Southern Netherlands suffered the ravages of the Eighty Years' War 1568-1648. Festivals then became an essential outlet breaking the monotony of laborious activity but also helping people to endure the onslaught of calamities. Seeking to move beyond the idea that Flemish fairs and festivals were one and the same this catalogue emphasizes the diversity of celebrations of the period. The work brings together contributions from leading specialists and demonstrates a broad vision of festivals: Jesuit festivals military triumphs shooting competitions celebrations of restored peace domestic festivities. Their variety results in a cross-section of the society of the time highlighting the prominent social and political role of public celebrations in regulating them. Called upon to immortalize these festivals or even to stage them artists have." left behind tapestries paintings medals watercolors prints. and giant heads!
