Abstract

The article discusses the 16th century silver-working trade in Antwerp, Belgium. In particular, it describes both the silver artwork produced in that trade and the trade's influence on other artwork such as painting. Among other topics discussed are popularity of the religious motif of the gifts of the Magi and how that image was associated with the city, how artwork was economically valued, and the stock exchange in Antwerp.
