EDITORS COMMENTS
Cornelis Troost's captivating oil painting, "Johanna and the Jewish Merchants," also known as "Act III, scene V from the comedy 'De Spilpenning of de verkwistende vrouw' (The Spillpenning or the spendthrift woman) by Thomas Asselijn," depicts a scene of deception and disguise in the affluent Dutch society of the 18th century. In the center, Johanna, a spendthrift woman, is engrossed in negotiations with two Jewish merchants, oblivious to the fact that her husband Gerardus and father Augustijn have disguised themselves as Polish merchants (smousen) to teach her a lesson about extravagant spending. The room is adorned with Chinese porcelain, statuettes, and other curiosities, reflecting the Dutch fascination with Chinoiserie and the exotic. The floor is strewn with discarded clothing items, including shoes, a corset, and lengths of fabric. A lemur, a popular exotic pet during this period, plays with lace on the left, adding to the whimsical atmosphere. Gerardus and Augustijn are seen gesturing towards Johanna, pointing to a ledger and coins on the table, while Johanna, dressed in an elegant gown, is engrossed in the conversation. The use of rich colors and ornate details in the painting highlights the opulence and material wealth of the Dutch society during this period. The fur hat worn by one of the merchants and the fur coat worn by Johanna add to the textures and layers in the painting. This masterpiece by Cornelis Troost is a window into the Dutch culture of the 18th century, showcasing the intricacies of disguise, the fascination with exoticism, and the importance of finance and material possessions.
