EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print depicts the esteemed Bishop of Antwerp, Ambrosius Cappelus, during the 17th century. Painted by the talented artist Abraham Jansz van Diepenbeeck, this artwork showcases the bishop's dignified presence and religious devotion. Bishop Ambrosius Capello served as a prominent figure in the Catholic diocese of Antwerp from 1652 until his passing. Renowned for his generosity and compassion, he selflessly bequeathed all his possessions to benefit the poor of Antwerp upon his death. To honor his memory, a magnificent monument was erected inside Antwerp Cathedral. The painting captures Bishop Cappelus seated on an ornate chair against a richly colored backdrop. The intricate details and vibrant hues exemplify the artistic brilliance of both Van Diepenbeeck and the Baroque era in which it was created. As part of the Flemish artistic school during Holland's Golden Age, Van Diepenbeeck skillfully portrays not only Cappelus' physical appearance but also conveys his deep spirituality through subtle nuances in expression and posture. Now housed within Far Eastern Art Museum in Khabarovsk, Russia, this remarkable piece serves as a testament to both religious history and artistic mastery. It offers viewers a glimpse into an influential period when religion played an integral role in society while showcasing Van Diepenbeeck's exceptional talent for capturing human emotion on canvas.
