EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the enigmatic figure of Jan van Hembyze, a devoted follower of the Ghent Calvinists during the tumultuous era of 1567. The portrait, skillfully captured by Frans I Pourbus, offers a glimpse into the resolute spirit and unwavering determination that defined this influential historical figure. Van Hembyze's commanding presence is evident as he gazes directly at the viewer with piercing eyes. His distinguished beard adds an air of wisdom and authority to his countenance, while his coat of arms proudly displays his allegiance to the Calvinist cause. This image serves as a powerful testament to Van Hembyze's pivotal role in shaping Dutch history during the war of independence. The photograph measures 45x33.4 cm and is housed in Vienna's esteemed Kunsthistorisches Museum, Austria. Its inclusion in this prestigious collection further solidifies its significance within Netherlandish art history. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, it becomes clear that Jan van Hembyze was not only a man but also an embodiment of ideals - those championed by Calvinism - which sought religious freedom and social justice for all. This evocative portrait invites us to reflect on Van Hembyze's legacy and ponder upon our own commitment to causes greater than ourselves.
