EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking 18th century portrait, painted by Cornelis Troost, depicts Gerrit Sichterman (1688-1730), a prominent military figure in the Dutch Republic during the Rococo era. Sichterman held several important positions in the military, including Quartermaster-General of the Cavalry, Colonel of the Oranje-Groningen Infantry Regiment, and Commandant of Grave. In this painting, Sichterman is shown wearing the uniform of a Colonel, with a blue coat adorned with gold braid and buttons, a red waistcoat, and a white cravat. He wears a tricorn hat with a red cockade, a symbol of his rank, and a pair of white gloves. In his right hand, he gestures towards the viewer, while his left hand rests on the hilt of his sword. The background shows a picturesque vista of a view to the sea, adding to the sense of grandeur and importance. The painting is a testament to the fashion and apparel of the time, with Sichterman's clothing reflecting the latest trends of the Rococo era. The use of oil on canvas technique adds to the richness and depth of the painting, making it a valuable addition to any collection of Dutch or European art. Sichterman's confident and capable demeanor, as captured by Troost, makes this portrait a fascinating glimpse into the history of the Dutch military and the Netherlands during the 18th century.
