This portrait print showcases the esteemed figure of Adam Westerwolt, an extraordinary councilor of the Dutch East India Company. Painted in 1636 by an anonymous artist, this knee-piece portrait depicts Westerwolt standing confidently beside a table adorned with a book and an astrolabe. The composition exudes a sense of authority and intellect, highlighting his role as both a councilor and commander of multiple squadrons. In this striking portrayal, Westerwolt is seen wearing gloves in his left hand, adding to the air of sophistication that surrounds him. The rich colors and meticulous brushstrokes bring depth and life to the panel, which measures 106 cm in height, 75.5 cm in width, 1.4 cm in thickness, and extends outwards by 10 cm. While not explicitly mentioned within the caption's parameters, it is worth noting that this artwork is part of the Liszt Collection—a treasure trove of historical prints curated for educational purposes rather than commercial use. Through this remarkable piece, viewers are transported back to a time when individuals like Adam van Westerwolt played pivotal roles in shaping global trade and exploration. This portrait serves as a testament to his accomplishments as well as an enduring symbol of the Dutch East India Company's influence during its heyday.
