EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print showcases the enigmatic and talented German artist, Pieter van der Faes (1618-1680). Born in the small town of Neuenhagen near Berlin, van der Faes is considered one of the most important German painters of the Baroque period. His mastery of chiaroscuro, or the contrast between light and dark, is evident in this self-portrait. Van der Faes' artistic training began in his hometown under the tutelage of local painters. However, it was in Italy that he honed his skills and was influenced by the works of Caravaggio and the Carracci brothers. Upon his return to Germany, he settled in Dresden, where he became a court painter for the Electors of Saxony. This self-portrait, with its intense gaze and dramatic lighting, is a testament to van der Faes' ability to capture the human spirit. The artist's hands, resting on a table, suggest a deep contemplation, while the intricate details of his clothing and the folds in his shirt reveal his meticulous attention to detail. Despite his success in Dresden, van der Faes' later years were marked by financial difficulties and a decline in patronage. He spent his final years in poverty, living in a small house in Berlin. Nevertheless, his legacy as a master painter of the Baroque period endures, and his works continue to inspire artists and art lovers alike. This print, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a rare glimpse into the life and art of this fascinating German artist. With its stunning detail and historical significance, it is a must-have for any art enthusiast or collector.
