EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait, we are transported back to the year 1654, where Abraham del Court and his wife Maria de Kaersgieter come alive on canvas. Painted by the talented Bartolomeus van der Helst, this oil masterpiece measures an impressive 146.5x172 cm and is housed in the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam. The couple exudes elegance and sophistication as they sit side by side in a lush garden setting. Abraham, dressed impeccably in a stylish doublet and silk attire, holds hands with his glamorous wife Maria. Her gown of grey satin drapery cascades gracefully around her figure while she delicately clutches a single rose. Both husband and wife epitomize affluence with their fashionable clothing choices that reflect the baroque era's opulence. The attention to detail is exquisite; every fold of fabric and petal of flower meticulously rendered. This portrait not only captures the beauty of these two individuals but also serves as a testament to their love for one another. Their seated pose symbolizes unity and devotion while surrounded by vibrant roses that represent passion. Van der Helst's skillful brushwork brings forth an air of timelessness to this painting, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. It stands as a remarkable example of Dutch portraiture from the 17th century, showcasing not only fashion trends but also botanical elements that were highly valued during those times.
