EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 19th century portrait captures Jonkheer Theodorus Frederik van Capellen (1762-1824), a distinguished Vice Admiral of the Dutch Navy, in all his regal splendor. Painted by the renowned Dutch artist Cornelis van Cuylenburg, the oil on canvas masterpiece showcases Van Capellen standing proudly before a backdrop of nautical maps and a globe, symbolizing his expertise and commanding presence in naval warfare. Dressed in the grandeur of his naval uniform, Van Capellen wears a red double-breasted jacket adorned with gold buttons and braid, a white waistcoat, and a crisp white shirt. His collar is adorned with a star, signifying his rank as Vice Admiral. A black cravat is fastened around his neck, and a white scarf is draped over his left shoulder. In his right hand, he holds a pair of binoculars, ready to survey the horizon for any signs of enemy ships. The artist, Cornelis van Cuylenburg, masterfully captures the intricate details of Van Capellen's uniform and accessories, from the gold epaulettes on his shoulders to the intricate knots on his cravat. The painting is a testament to the rich heritage and history of the Dutch Navy and the Low Countries during the 19th century. This portrait, now housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, is a must-see for anyone interested in naval history, Dutch heritage, or simply appreciating the beauty of a well-executed portrait painting.
