EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th-century portrait, captured in a stunning oil painting by Cornelis Janssens van Ceulen, showcases the timeless beauty of a young girl. The print, dating back to 1916 and featured in The Connoisseur Vol XLIV by Otto Limited, London, transports us to an era long gone. The subject of this enigmatic artwork is a dark-haired teenager dressed in exquisite period clothing. Her attire reflects the fashion trends of the 17th century with its intricate lace collar and corseted bodice. A delicate shawl drapes over her shoulders, adding an air of elegance to her ensemble. Despite being separated by centuries from our modern world, this portrait resonates with viewers today. It serves as a reminder that human emotions and experiences transcend time. We are left wondering about the thoughts and dreams that occupied this young girl's mind all those years ago. The artist's skillful use of color brings life to every brushstroke on canvas. The rich hues evoke a sense of depth and realism rarely seen in portraits from this era. Van Ceulen's attention to detail is evident not only in his meticulous rendering of the sitter but also in capturing her essence - her youthfulness and innocence shine through. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we become collectors ourselves - collectors not just of art but also of stories frozen within each stroke. This print allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship behind it and the enduring allure held by portraits throughout history.
