EDITORS COMMENTS
John I, Marquis of Namur (1267-1330), is depicted in this striking oil on canvas portrait painted by Albrecht de Vriendt in 1889. The Marquis is shown in regal attire, wearing a fur-lined robe and a crown adorned with precious stones. His piercing gaze and strong posture convey a sense of power and authority. John I was a significant figure in the Low Countries during the late Middle Ages. He was the son of Guy of Namur and Margaret of Flanders, and ruled over the Principality of Namur from 1280 until his death. The Marquis was known for his military prowess and diplomatic skills, which helped him maintain Namur's independence amidst the political turmoil of the time. This portrait of John I was painted during the late 19th century, a time when there was a renewed interest in the history and culture of the Low Countries. Albrecht de Vriendt was a prominent Belgian painter of the period, known for his historical and genre paintings. He expertly captured the essence of John I's character, creating a vivid and compelling representation of the Marquis's strength and dignity. The portrait is now housed in the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Belgium, where it continues to captivate visitors with its rich historical significance and artistic merit. The painting is a testament to the enduring allure of the past and the power of art to preserve and celebrate the stories of those who came before us.
