Abstract
Seventeenth- and eighteenth-century devotional prints contain much information about early modern spirituality and life in general, as well as art-historical and social-economic information. To enable researchers to access this information, the creation of online databases for large collections is essential. In 2023 the database of one of the most important collections in the Low Countries, the Ruusbroec Institute devotional prints collection, was launched. Created in the 1920s, it now counts about 40,000 items. Starting from this collection, the article will show what possible new research angles can be looked into by researchers from different research fields.
