EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait by Julius Quinkhard, painted in 1757, offers a unique glimpse into the artist's life as a young man. The image is particularly noteworthy for the presence of Quinkhard's father and teacher, Jan Maurits Quinkhard, standing beside him. Jan Maurits, born in 1688, was a prominent Dutch painter and educator, who significantly influenced his son's artistic development. The double portrait showcases the intergenerational exchange of knowledge and skill that characterized the Dutch artistic tradition during the Eighteenth Century. The elder Quinkhard, dressed in a formal robe and holding a palette and brushes, represents the authority and wisdom of a seasoned artist and educator. Meanwhile, the younger Quinkhard, dressed in a simple shirt and waistcoat, gazes intently at his father, absorbing his teachings and demonstrating his own artistic prowess. The oil on canvas painting, held in the esteemed Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, offers a poignant reflection on the importance of family and education in the artistic world. The image not only captures the essence of fatherhood and the passing of the torch from one generation to the next but also highlights the rich artistic heritage of the Low Countries during the Eighteenth Century. This powerful portrait invites us to contemplate the profound impact of our teachers and mentors on our personal and professional growth.
