EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning 18th century portrait, titled "Portrait of François van Aerssen, Lord of Sommelsdijk, Vice-Admiral of Holland and West-Friesland," is a testament to the rich maritime and military history of the Netherlands during this period. Painted by the renowned Dutch artist Mattheus Verheyden in 1728, the oil on canvas depiction captures the powerful presence of François van Aerssen, a prominent naval commander and admiral in the Dutch fleet. The figure of Van Aerssen is depicted in full regalia, wearing the uniform of a vice-admiral, complete with a grand sash and a hat adorned with gold braid and feathers. The background is simple, with a dark, textured fabric serving as an elegant backdrop to the subject. However, the true focus of the painting is the intricately designed coat of arms that dominates the lower portion of the canvas. The blazon of the coat of arms is heraldically correct, featuring the escutcheon of the Van Aerssen family, which is divided into four quadrants. The first and fourth quadrants display a golden lion on a red background, while the second and third quadrants show a silver castle on a blue background. Above the shield, there is a helmet with a crest of a golden lion's head, and the motto "Fortis et Fidelis" (Strong and Faithful) is inscribed below. The portrait of François van Aerssen is a significant addition to any art collection or gallery, showcasing the grandeur and prestige of the Dutch admiralty during the 18th century. The painting's historical and cultural significance is further emphasized by its inclusion in the Rijksmuseum's extensive collection, making it a must-see for anyone interested in Dutch history, naval warfare, or the arts.
