EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Portrait of Hans Bol," was created by the renowned Dutch engraver Hendrik Goltzius in the late 16th century. The image, dated 1593, is a testament to Goltzius' exceptional skill as an artist and master printer. The subject of the portrait is Hans Bol, a fellow artist and engraver from Mechlin, in the Netherlands. The portrait is striking for its bold, black and white contrast, with intricate ornamental details that frame the subject's face. Hans Bol gazes directly at the viewer with an intense and confident expression, his gaze unbroken by the boundary of the frame. The lettering below the portrait identifies the subject and the artist, adding an element of textual information to the visual representation. The portrait is a significant example of the artistic output of the Low Countries during the 16th century. Goltzius' use of the direct gaze and the contrasting black and white palette were innovative techniques that influenced the development of European art. This portrait is now part of the collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), and serves as a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of Europe during the Renaissance period.
