EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1642 in Amsterdam, where four distinguished figures of the Arquebusiers Civic Guard gather around a table. The group portrait showcases Albert Coenraetsz Burgh, Jan Claesz Vlooswijck, Pieter Reael, and Jacob Willekens as they engage in conversation and camaraderie. The scene is enriched by the presence of Jacob Pietersz Nachtglas, who presents them with a silver guild cup crafted from buffalo horn. This exquisite piece adds an air of elegance to the room and symbolizes their esteemed status within the guild. Adorning one side of the wall is a framed emblem representing the Kloveniers - a claw-shaped board that signifies their membership in this prestigious guild. It serves as a reminder of their duty to protect Amsterdam and its citizens. Captured on canvas with oil paint by Govert Flinck, this remarkable artwork measures an impressive 203 cm in height and 278 cm in width. Its meticulous attention to detail brings these historical figures to life once again. This print from Liszt Collection offers us a glimpse into the past while celebrating the rich history and tradition of Amsterdam's civic guard. It reminds us of their dedication to safeguarding their city during tumultuous times.
