EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of Sara de Bie" or "Sara de Bie, Jan Lutma's Second Wife," was painted by the renowned Dutch artist Jacob Adriaensz. Backer (1608-1651) around the year 1638-1651. Sara de Bie, the subject of the painting, is depicted in a half-length format, dressed in the height of Baroque fashion. Her elegant headdress and intricately designed jewelry, including a prominent finger ring, signify her affluence and high social standing. The painting is an excellent representation of the Dutch Golden Age, a period of cultural and artistic flourishing in the Netherlands. The use of rich colors and oil on panel technique adds to the painting's vibrancy and depth. Sara's expression conveys a sense of confidence and composure, reflecting the historical context of the time when marriage alliances and social status were crucial factors in Dutch society. Jacob Adriaensz. Backer was a prominent painter of the Low Countries, known for his portraits and genre scenes. He was influenced by artists such as Johannes Lutma the Elder (Jan Lutma) and Janus Lutma, who were also active during the Dutch Golden Age. The painting is now part of the vast collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, a testament to the enduring legacy of Dutch heritage art and the historical significance of the 17th century in European art history.
