This research paper: A 4 page essay that analyzes an article by Charlotte Houghton ("This was tomorrow: Pieter Aertsen's Meat tall as Contemporary Art," Art Bulletin, 2004). In her thorough analysis of Pieter Aertsen's sixteenth century masterpiece, "The Meat Stall" painted in Antwerp in 1551, Houghton poses an intriguing thesis. She proposes that this work should be understood within the context of the society and culture in which it was recreated. Houghton points out that works of art that are now incredibly familiar were viewed as novel, shocking and innovating when they were first viewed. Houghton posits that this observation is particularly true in regards to this work and bases this position on a number of well-considered arguments. No additional sources cited.
