EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the Officers and other civil guardsmen of the XIth District of Amsterdam. Led by Captain Geurt Dircksz van Beuningen and Lieutenant Pieter Martensz Hoeffijser, these brave men are seen engaging in a friendly shooting competition with the meal of seventeen shooters at Longbow goals. The photograph is set against a backdrop of historical significance, dating back to 1613. In the center of the image, amidst the determined shooters, lies a beautifully arranged table adorned with plates filled with delectable food items such as bread, pie, and olives. A roemer in a cup screw adds an elegant touch to this scene. As we examine each individual within this group portrait from left to right (top row), their names come alive: Hans van der Voort, Jan Cornelisz Meulen, Gerrit Martsz Conijnenburgh, Willem Kik, Heindrik Hogendorp, Cornelis Gerritsz, Laurens Laurensz van Baalen Cosmo de Moucheron and Pierre de Nimay. The bottom row introduces us to ensign Kls Bisschop alongside Captain Geurt Dircksz van Beuningen himself and Lieutenant Pieter Martensz Hoeffijser. Completing this remarkable ensemble are Laurens Jansz van Lier Heindrick Sybrantsz Voet Adriaen van Nieulandt Sergeant Jan Tengnagel and Aert Keyser. Preserved on canvas using oil paint techniques by artist Jan Tengnagel himself in 1613; this masterpiece measures h 155 cm x w 264 cm x d 11.5 cm. Its presence evokes nostalgia for an era long gone but not forgotten—a testament to camaraderie among officers who served dutifully during that period.
