Monk Standing, 1657
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor painting by the renowned Dutch artist Gesina ter Borch. This artwork, created during the 17th century, showcases the monk's solemnity and introspection as he stands in his black habit against an octagonal frame. The monk, a member of the Order of the Crosiers, is depicted wearing the traditional Roman Catholic religious attire, including a crosier, a tonsure, and a simple black dress. His long, flowing hair is styled in a traditional hairstyle of the time, adding an element of authenticity to the portrait. The monk gazes away from the viewer, his expression suggesting deep contemplation or prayer. The use of ink and watercolor paint adds depth and texture to the image, highlighting the intricacies of the monk's clothing and the subtle details of his face. This artwork is a testament to the Dutch Golden Age, a period of cultural and artistic flourishing in the United Provinces of the Netherlands. It is also a reflection of the pervasive influence of Catholicism in European society during the 17th century. The painting is now a cherished part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, a leading museum in Europe dedicated to preserving and showcasing the heritage of arts and culture. The monk's stoic presence and the intricacies of his clothing and hairstyle make this painting a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering insights into the fashion, religion, and art of the 17th century. The use of watercolor paint adds a delicate and ethereal quality to the image, making it a beautiful and thought-provoking addition to any art collection.
