RKD Publications

Currently, all RKD online publications are published under the heading RKD Studies. As these are different in nature, they will be divided into four categories in the near future and published under the banner of RKD Publications. The categories will be: RKD Studies (new scholarly research), RKD Sources (annotated source publications), RKD Proceedings (a series of completed articles or conference proceedings) and RKD Focus (oeuvre catalogues, often accompanied by an introduction). This subdivision will take shape in a revamped website.

Online RKD publications are a dynamic form of publication: images, captions and other information can be retrieved 'live' from the RKD databases.
