It was the largest exhibition of c 15th c Flemish art to date, consisted of 413 official catalogue entries,[1] and drew some 35,000 visitors.[2] The exposition was highly influential, leading to at least five contemporary books as well as numerous scholarly articles, and initiated deeper study of the Flemish Primitives by a new generation of connoisseurs.[3][4] It also inspired Johan Huizinga to research and write his The Autumn of the Middle Ages.[5] The change in attribution of many important works (in table below) reflects progress in understanding the era by art historians since then, although it is an ongoing process.
