Cornelis Janssens van Ceulen (1593-1661): A Dutch master of portraiture, his brush brought life to the faces of the 17th century. From the elegant "Portrait of a Gentleman" (ca. 1635-1640) to the captivating "Madame Tulp" (1660), his works reflect the sophistication and charm of the Dutch Golden Age. Van Ceulen's portraits of prominent figures like Lucius 2nd Viscount Falkland (1610-43), Anna Maria van Schurman (1657), and Sir Thomas Holte (1571-1654), 1st Baronet of Aston Hall (1600-1700), continue to captivate viewers with their intricate details and striking realism. His portraits of Elizabeth Holte (nee King), Edward Holte, Grace Bradbourne, and a man with a watch (all dated between 1636 and 1657) further showcase his mastery of the medium, inviting us to connect with the subjects and their stories.
