Dutch representations of native classicizing palaces and villas reveal important information about the social, economic, and political status and ambitions, as well as the artistic and cultural tastes, of the elite members of the United Provinces during the seventeenth century. Very wealthy, urban, middle-class regent families held most of the political and economic power, but were greatly influenced socially and culturally by the nobility. The urban patriciate often emulated their noble neighbors by owning a country estate, and by having it represented in an architectural view, landscape, or portrait. Less wealthy burghers, without estates, owned representations of others' villas or of imaginary ones. The country properties of the Dutch regents and nobility served not only as symbols of status and wealth, but also as retreats from the unhealthy aspects of city life. Such ideals of country life were expressed and fostered differently in hofdichten, or Dutch country house poems, and in the images of country estates. Though usually not even mentioned in hofdichten, where gardens reigned supreme, the houses of the middle-class patriciate and the nobility were the most-depicted and recognizable elements of their estates in the visual arts. These structures served as primary symbols of the influence, wealth, and refinement of both groups. Choosing a classicizing style for their homes also demonstrated a desire to keep up with the latest trends. The chapters are divided according to the following themes: Chapter I, "Representations of Classicizing Houses Within series, and Their Political Implications," explores the political meanings present in sets of images featuring classicizing villas and palaces; the subjects of Chapter II, "Classicizing Country Houses as Reflections of Dutch Male Elite Cultural Identity," are images of individual classicizing villas as symbols of the self-image and status of the male urban rulers of the Northern Netherlands; and Chapter III, "Dynasty Building and the Classicizing Country House: The Symbolic Use of Villas in Betrothal, Marriage, and Family Portraiture," addresses how the images of country houses in portraits served to promote the ambitions of continued or increased family position, strength, and stability.
