EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Willem Hartigsvelt, Director of the Rotterdam Chamber of the Dutch East India Company. Elected in 1657 and serving until his passing in 1664, Hartigsvelt's influential role is immortalized in this stunning portrait. The bust of his likeness is elegantly displayed within an oval frame to the right, exuding a sense of dignity and authority. Part of a remarkable series depicting the governors of the Rotterdam Chamber, these portraits were commissioned for display at the New East Indian House from 1698 onwards. Located on Boompjes Street in Rotterdam, this grand establishment served as a symbol of power and prosperity for both the city and its connection to global trade. Painted by Pieter van der Werff between 1695 and 1722, this particular artwork captures Hartigsvelt's essence with masterful skill. The canvas comes alive with vibrant oil paint that brings out every intricate detail, highlighting his features and personality. The Liszt Collection has preserved this historical gem for all to admire. It provides us with a glimpse into an era when maritime trade flourished under the Dutch East India Company's guidance. This print serves as a reminder not only of Hartigsvelt's significant contributions but also pays homage to those who shaped Rotterdam's economic landscape during that time
