EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished portrait of Jacques Specx, a notable historical figure who served as the Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies from 1629 to 1632. The image captures Specx's commanding presence, with his half-profile pose and intense gaze drawing viewers into his world. Part of an exquisite series depicting former governors general of the Dutch East Indies, this particular artwork stands out for its attention to detail and masterful use of oil paint on panel. Measuring at 97.5 cm in height, 77.8 cm in width, and with a depth of 2.4 cm, this portrait truly commands attention. Jacques Specx himself was born in 1588 and played a significant role as a colonial governor during his tenure in Japan and Batavia (now Jakarta). His contributions to history are reflected not only through this remarkable artwork but also through his impactful actions during that era. The anonymous artist behind this masterpiece has skillfully captured both the physical likeness and inner strength that characterized Jacques Specx's leadership. This print serves as a window into an important period in Dutch colonial history, offering us insight into the lives and legacies of those who shaped it
