EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 17th-century oil painting by Bartholomeus van der Helst depicts Geertruida den Dubbelde, the wife of Aert van Nes, in an elegant and affluent display of Dutch Golden Age fashion. The portrait, painted in 1668, captures Geertruida's ginger hair styled in an intricate and elaborate do, her red dress adorned with rich colors and intricate patterns, and her hand gesturing confidently on her hip. The direct gaze she gives to the viewer adds an air of assertiveness and strength to her regal posture. The painting is a testament to the wealth and prosperity of the Low Countries during this period, with the fine clothing and accessories on display reflecting the extravagance and sophistication of the time. The sleeves of her dress are voluminous and adorned with lace, while the dress itself is cinched at the waist to accentuate her figure. The background of the painting is simple, with a harbor scene visible through the window, drawing the focus to Geertruida and her striking appearance. Bartholomeus van der Helst was a renowned Dutch painter of the 17th century, known for his portraits of the affluent and powerful. This portrait of Geertruida den Dubbelde is a prime example of his skill in capturing the essence of his subjects and the fashion of the time. Today, it is a cherished piece of heritage art, housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of the Netherlands.
