EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed figure of Ewoud Pietersz van der Horst, Director of the Rotterdam Chamber of the Dutch East India Company. The portrait, created in 1618, depicts a distinguished man with an oval frame to his right. It is part of a remarkable series that immortalizes the governors of the Rotterdam Chamber at the New East Indian House in Rotterdam. The artist behind this masterpiece is Pieter van der Werff, who skillfully captured Van der Horst's essence and authority. Painted on canvas using oil paint, this artwork measures 82 cm in height and 68 cm in width. Van der Horst's significance within the Dutch East India Company cannot be overstated. His election as director marked a pivotal moment for both him personally and for the company itself. Born before 1624 and chosen for this prestigious position in 1618, he played a crucial role in shaping trade relations during that era. Displayed prominently at Boompjes in Rotterdam since its creation in 1698, this portrait stands as a testament to Van der Horst's legacy and influence within one of history's most influential trading companies
