EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Riot at the Conviction of Cornelis Halewijn and Herman Jansz. in Antwerp in 1559," is a masterpiece by the Dutch artist Jacob van der Ulft, created between 1652 and 1659. The design for a print vividly portrays a chaotic scene in the historic city of Antwerp, located in the Flanders region of present-day Belgium. The painting depicts a riotous crowd, fueled by anger and protest, gathered in the streets. The cause of their unrest is the impending conviction of Cornelis Halewijn and Herman Jansz. The crowd, a sea of men, is a diverse group, with some brandishing weapons such as lances, spears, and drums, while others simply join in the fray with fists raised. The central figures of the painting are the two convicted men, Cornelis Halewijn and Herman Jansz., who are being led away by armed guards. Their faces are etched with despair and resignation as they are taken away from their fellow townspeople. The rioters in the painting are a passionate and determined group, their faces contorted with emotion as they protest against the verdict. Some beat drums, adding to the cacophony of the scene, while others brandish weapons, ready to defend their cause. The painting is a testament to the power of art to capture historical moments and convey the emotions and passions of the people involved. Jacob van der Ulft's skillful use of watercolor paint brings the scene to life, with vivid colors and intricate details that transport the viewer back in time to the streets of Antwerp in the 16th century.
