EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed painting "Six Regents and the Beadle of the Nieuw Zijds Institute for the Outdoor Relief of the Poor, Amsterdam, 1657" by Ferdinand Bol. The artwork, which measures 143x192 cm, is proudly displayed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. In this Dutch Golden Age masterpiece, Bol skillfully captures a significant moment in history. The painting depicts six governors and a clerk gathered together from the Nieuwe Zijds Huiszittenhuis in Amsterdam. These influential figures include Cornelus Metsue, Jan Appelman, Abraham Ernst van Bassen, Joachim Jansz Scheepmaker, Jan van Halewijn, and Tyman Veeneman. The group portrait exudes an air of authority and importance as these men fulfill their duties as trustees for charitable distribution. Dressed impeccably with collars and hats that signify their status as officials and citizens during this prosperous era in Dutch history. Bol's attention to detail is evident through his meticulous rendering of each individual's features and expressions. The composition is further enhanced by a richly decorated interior setting adorned with carpets symbolizing wealth and prosperity. This remarkable piece serves not only as a historical record but also as a testament to human compassion during times of need. It reminds us of our duty to care for those less fortunate within our society while celebrating the artistic brilliance that emerged during Holland's golden age.
