I believe they were more ''genre artists'' ,in the sense that they were -inluenced by their religion which was and is , Protestantism -more focused on depicting every day life domestic scenes and also moralising scenes with emphasis on the details.This was not true for Italian artists for example, who depicted more allegorical and mythology-influenced scenes in their paintings. In the bottom line , I think the main differences were based on religion :Italy and other countries were expressing the baroque style in their churches and religious paintings or statues whereas Dutch baroque painters were restricted by Protestantism in depicting domestic scenes. In my opinion this fact helped them create masterpieces too and lead to the resurgence of many great artists of the time in Holland.
