EDITORS COMMENTS
This 17th century portrait depicts David Gloxin, an influential figure during the Peace of Westphalia negotiations in Europe. Anonymous and attributed to Anselm van Hulle or Anselmus van Hulle, this oil on canvas painting showcases the bearded diplomat in formal attire, dressed in the fashion of the Low Countries. The intricately detailed apparel includes a chain of office and a lace collar, symbolizing his position as a commissary, ambassador, or envoy for Germany. With a direct gaze and a serious expression, Gloxin exudes an air of authority and importance. The painting, now housed at the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, offers a glimpse into the political climate of the 17th century, a time of significant change in Europe. The Peace of Westphalia, signed in 1648, marked the end of the Thirty Years' War and brought about religious peace in the region. Gloxin's role in these negotiations highlights his significance in European history. The painting's muted color palette and meticulous brushwork add to its historical authenticity, capturing the essence of the 17th century. The artist's skillful rendering of Gloxin's facial hair, clothing, and accessories adds depth and texture to the portrait. This striking image of David Gloxin serves as a reminder of the pivotal role diplomats and politicians played in shaping the political landscape of Europe during the 17th century.
