EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Bust of Hugo Grotius as a 15-year-old young man, elegantly positioned on the right side within an oval frame. Created by the talented printmaker Jacob de Gheyn (II) in 1599, this exquisite piece captures the essence of a prodigious individual who would go on to make significant contributions in various fields. Hugo Grotius, renowned for his brilliance and intellect, was not only a professor but also a scientist and scholar. At such a tender age, he displayed exceptional talent and was already making waves in academia. The intricate neckgear and clothing depicted in this print reflect the fashion of that era, while the ruff adds an air of sophistication to his youthful visage. The occasion for this medallion-like representation arose when King Henry IV promoted Grotius to stay at the University of France in 1598. This Latin text is inscribed with lines that serve as a testament to his extraordinary abilities and accomplishments. Quint Lox's masterful capture allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic beauty encapsulated within this image. It serves as a reminder of Grotius' remarkable journey from being an exceptionally gifted teenager to becoming one of history's most influential figures in law and philosophy.
