EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Portrait of Johan de Vries, Director of the Rotterdam Chamber of the Dutch East India Company. Elected in 1667, Johan de Vries was a prominent figure during his time and this portrait beautifully captures his essence. The bust is elegantly presented within an oval frame to the right, adding a touch of sophistication to the composition. Part of a remarkable series depicting the governors of the Rotterdam Chamber, this particular artwork was created by Pieter van der Werff between 1695 and 1722. It holds great historical significance as it was made specifically for display at the New East Indian House located on Boompjes Street in Rotterdam. The canvas measures approximately 82 cm in height and 68 cm in width, making it an impressive piece that demands attention. The artist skillfully employed oil paint to bring out intricate details and enhance depth within this masterpiece. Johan de Vries himself lived from 1607 to 1677, leaving behind a legacy that continues to be celebrated through this stunning portrayal. This print allows us to appreciate not only his contribution as director but also serves as a reminder of the rich history associated with both Rotterdam and the Dutch East India Company.
