EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic scene of "The Discovery of Jan Clsz, 1738" by Cornelis Troost. The pastel and gouache on paper canvas showcases a moment from a play or comedy set in the Dutch interior. Saartje Jansz and Jan Claesz are depicted as two lovers who must keep their relationship hidden due to her impending marriage to Reinier. In this particular scene, tensions rise as Jan Claesz is discovered disguised as a servant girl in Saartje's room by her enraged parents. However, quick thinking on Saatje's part saves the day when she pretends to faint, causing her parents to reconsider their anger and agree to the union between the young couple. Troost skillfully captures not only the theatricality of this farcical moment but also highlights themes of disguise and unmasking within society. The use of women's clothing as a means for Jan Claesz to infiltrate Saartje's room adds an element of intrigue and humor. With its vibrant colors and attention to detail, this artwork transports viewers into a world filled with domestic drama and comedic twists. It serves as a testament to Troost's talent for capturing both human emotion and societal norms through his artistry. Overall, "The Discovery of Jan Clsz" offers an engaging glimpse into Dutch theater culture while exploring timeless themes that continue to resonate with audiences today.
