Frederik Hendrik and his wife Amalia van Solms created a royal court in the Netherlands, the like of which the country had never seen." "This book describes in full detail the rich world of their court. First the early history, daily life and the place of the court in a national and European setting is considered. The enormous cultural impact of Frederik Hendrik on architecture, painting and fashion is explored in the second part." --Book Jacket.
