EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the esteemed Robert van Voerst, a Dutch engraver who held the prestigious title of royal engraver to King Charles I of England during the years 1597-1636. The artist, Thomas Chambars, skillfully captures Van Voerst's dignified presence and artistic prowess in this copperplate engraving. Van Voerst's contribution to the art world is truly remarkable, as he played a vital role in shaping the visual culture of his time. His intricate engravings adorned various works commissioned by King Charles I himself, reflecting his close association with royalty and his undeniable talent. The original portrait from which this print was derived was painted by Anthony van Dyck, one of history's most renowned portrait artists. It is fascinating to see how Chambars expertly translated Van Dyck's vision into an exquisite engraved form. This particular print can be found within Horace Walpole's "Anecdotes of Painting in England" published in London in 1808. Its inclusion within this esteemed publication further solidifies its significance within British art history. As we gaze upon this striking image, we are transported back to a time when artistry flourished under royal patronage. Through this print, we are reminded of Robert van Voerst's lasting impact on both Dutch and English artistic traditions.
