EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Laurens Reael, a prominent figure in Dutch history. Serving as the Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies from 1616 to 1619, and later becoming the governor of the Dutch East India Company in Amsterdam from 1625 onwards, Reael's influence was far-reaching. The portrait captures Reael in all his grandeur, standing tall with a commanding presence. In his right hand, he holds a stick, perhaps symbolizing his authority and leadership. His left hand rests confidently at his side, exuding an air of self-assurance. To the right of Reael stands a table adorned with a helmet and gloves - objects that may represent both military prowess and elegance. These items further emphasize Reael's multifaceted nature as a statesman and military leader. Painted by Cornelis van der Voort around 1620 on canvas using oil paint, this masterpiece measures an impressive height of 223 cm and width of 127 cm. The artist skillfully captures every intricate detail of Reael's features while also conveying his dignified aura. This remarkable portrait is part of the Liszt Collection - an invaluable treasure trove that preserves historical moments through art. It serves as a testament to Laurens Reael's significant contributions to both colonial governance and trade during this pivotal period in Dutch history.
