Alongside the fairs and before specialist auction sales were established, they were an atypical but popular and large-scale form of the art trade. As part of a growing entrepreneurial sensibility based on speculation and a sense of risk, they lay behind many innovations. This study looks at their actors, networks and strategies. It considers the objects at stake, their value, and the forms of visual communication intended to boost an appetite for ownership. Ultimately, it contemplates how the lottery culture impacted notions of Fortune and Vanitas in the visual arts. 650 0 $a Art $x History. $z Benelux countries $x History. 650 0 $a Lotteries $z Benelux countries $x History. 650 0 $a Art $x History. $z Benelux countries $x History. 650 0 $a Art and society $z Benelux countries $x History. 650 7 $a Art and society. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815432 650 7 $a Art $x Collectors and collecting. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815195 650 7 $a Art $x Economic aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815231 650 7 $a Lotteries. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01002676 651 7 $a Benelux countries. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01242373 650 7 $a GluÂcksspiel $g Motiv $2 gnd 650 7 $a Kunst $2 gnd 650 7 $a Kunsthandel $2 gnd 650 7 $a Lotterie $2 gnd 651 7 $a Flandern $2 gnd 651 7 $a Niederlande $2 gnd 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Raux, Sophie. $t Lotteries, art markets, and visual culture in the Low Countries, 15th-17th centuries. $d Leiden ; Boston : Brill, 2018 $z 9789004358812 $w (DLC) 2017053008 830 0 $a Studies in the history of collecting & art markets ; $v v. 4. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231017012605.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=755DB5BE840911E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
