EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Vigilius von Aytta, a prominent figure in Dutch history during the 16th century. Painted by Frans I Pourbus, this oil on panel masterpiece showcases the intellect and authority of Von Aytta. Von Aytta, a renowned Dutch humanist, jurist, and statesman, played significant roles in the Spanish Netherlands under the reigns of Charles V and Philip II. As President of the Council of State during Margaret of Parma's regency in 1559 and Chancellor of the Order of the Golden Fleece from 1562 onwards, he held positions that demanded great responsibility. The portrait depicts Von Aytta with an air of wisdom and sophistication. His neatly trimmed beard frames his face while his eyes exude intelligence. The artist skillfully captures every intricate detail - from his distinguished hat to his elegant attire - reflecting both Renaissance fashion trends and Von Aytta's high social standing. Beyond politics, Von Aytta was also known for promoting religious moderation amidst turbulent times. He sought to restrain Duke Alva's ferocity while serving as Provost at Ghent Cathedral from 1562 until his death in 1577. This remarkable print is housed at Galleria degli Uffizi in Florence, Italy. It serves as a testament to Vigilius von Aytta's enduring legacy as a respected scholar-statesman who navigated complex political landscapes with finesse and advocated for religious harmony during
