EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the renowned Flemish engraver and painter, Paulus Pontius. Created in 1817 by James (John) Girtin, this etching captures the essence of Pontius' talent and skill. Pontius, who lived from 1603 to 1658, was closely associated with esteemed artists such as Peter Paul Rubens, Anthony van Dyck, and Jacob Jordaens. His work within their workshops undoubtedly influenced his own artistic style. The tinted etching is framed within a decorative border designed by John Girtin himself. It is based on a portrait originally painted by Anthony van Dyck, further emphasizing the connection between these great artists. This particular print is part of John Girtin's collection titled "Seventy-Five Portraits of Celebrated Painters from Authentic Originals". Published in London in 1817 by J. M Creery, it serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of these influential painters. The image itself exudes an air of sophistication and elegance that befits Pontius' status as one of Flanders' most celebrated artists. The attention to detail and mastery evident in his engravings are beautifully captured within this print. Overall, this print offers viewers a glimpse into both the artistry of Paulus Pontius and the rich cultural heritage he represents. It stands as a tribute to his significant contributions to Flemish art while also highlighting the interconnectedness between prominent European artists during this period.
