EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Egbert Meeuwsz Cortenaer, a prominent figure in naval history. Serving as Vice Admiral for the Admiralty of the Maze in Rotterdam during the 17th century, Cortenaer's portrait exudes authority and command. The image depicts Cortenaer in a bust form, his left hand resting on his command staff. His piercing gaze reflects both determination and wisdom acquired through years of experience at sea. This particular portrayal is believed to have been created around 1660 by Bartholomeus van der Helst, an accomplished artist known for capturing the essence of his subjects. Notably, this portrait captures a defining moment in Cortenaer's career - the Battle of Lowestoft. As one of his most significant achievements, this battle solidified his reputation as a skilled strategist and fearless leader. The painting serves as a testament to his bravery and unwavering commitment to protecting Dutch interests on the high seas. Measuring approximately 68 cm in height, 59 cm in width, and with a depth of 7.5 cm, this panel artwork has been meticulously preserved over time. Its use of oil paint adds richness and depth to every brushstroke. As part of the Liszt Collection, this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only Cortenaer's historical significance but also Van der Helst's artistic talent that immortalized him for generations to come.
