EDITORS COMMENTS
This self-portrait, created around 1665 by the renowned Dutch artist Gerrit Dou, showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. Painted in oil on wood, this masterpiece measures approximately 19 1/4 x 15 3/8 inches (49 x 39 cm), making it a remarkable display of precision within a relatively small canvas. Gerrit Dou was a leading figure among the Leiden fijnschilders, or fine painters, during the seventeenth century. In this self-portrait, he pays homage to the earlier Netherlandish tradition while also demonstrating his own unique style. The meticulous description and superb craftsmanship evident in every brushstroke highlight Dou's mastery as a learned painter. The artist presents himself with an air of scholarly attire, holding onto a large book that symbolizes knowledge and intellectual pursuits. His expression exudes confidence and wisdom gained through years of experience in his craft. Through this self-portrait print from Artokoloro's Liszt Collection, viewers can appreciate not only Gerrit Dou's technical skill but also gain insight into the life and personality of this esteemed artist. It serves as a testament to his significant contributions to art history and offers us an intimate glimpse into his world during the height of the Dutch Golden Age.
