EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to a significant moment in shipbuilding history. Shipbuilder Jan Rijcksen stands at a table, his eyes focused on the intricate design of a ship's keel. His skilled hands still clutching a compass, he is interrupted by the entrance of his wife Griet Jans. Griet Jans enters the room with purpose, holding an important letter for her husband. Despite being engrossed in his work, Jan Rijcksen graciously accepts the letter without hesitation. This snapshot captures not only their deep connection as a married couple but also highlights their shared dedication to their respective roles within the shipbuilding industry. The etching itself exudes an air of authenticity and nostalgia, transporting us to 1800 when Johannes Pieter de Frey masterfully created this piece on paper. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line and stroke brings life to this intimate scene between husband and wife. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but marvel at how marriage intertwines with one's professional pursuits. It serves as a reminder that even amidst demanding careers and ambitious endeavors, love and support remain essential pillars in any successful partnership. This print encapsulates not just historical significance but also timeless themes of commitment, collaboration, and unwavering devotion between two individuals united by both matrimony and vocation.
