EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, painted by Cornelis Pietersz. van der Voort in 1622, depicts the renowned Dutch statesman and poet, Cornelis Pietersz Hooft (1546-1626). Hooft held significant political power in the Dutch Republic, serving as burgomaster of Amsterdam and a member of the Council of State. The painting captures Hooft in a formal setting, dressed in the attire of the time. He wears a tabard, a long, loose garment, over a fur-lined coat. A colorful collar, or ruff, encircles his neck, and a skullcap sits atop his head. Hooft's outfit is completed with a fur-trimmed hat and a simple cap beneath it. The artist masterfully portrays the intricacies of Hooft's clothing, from the folds of his tabard to the texture of his fur-trimmed hat. The portrait provides a glimpse into the fashion and culture of the 17th century in the Netherlands, offering a historical record of the period's political and artistic heritage. The painting is now on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors with its intricate details and rich history.
