Elegant Director emeritus of CODART figures dressed in silk and satin enjoy innocent pastimes and decorous flir- The Hague tations in costly interiors or on gracious terraces. Often they play or listen to music, and their poses have a certain choreographic daintiness, painted with subtlety and skill. Despite his talent and the appreciation he enjoyed in his lifetime, he has not made it higher than the lowest rungs of the ladder of recognition in the modern historiography of Dutch painting. Un-noticed until now is that the artist is also the author of one of the better documented small portrait oeuvres of the mid-seventeenth century (see Table i).1 The evidence lies in sources of considerable authority: the testament of a sitter; the estate inven- tory of a sitter’s spouse; a poem of praise by Joost van den Vondel (1587-1679); five tributes, naming six sitters, by Jan Vos (1612-1667); and three contemporaneous reproduction prints incised with a credit to Van Zijl’s authorship of the two under- lying paintings (figs. 1-3). These references show that the artist enjoyed the favor of prominent persons in the great regent families as well as in intellectual, artistic and mercantile circles. What makes this article a ghost story is that not a single one of the ten paintings so documented is known today or even seems to have been noticed again following its initial entry into the historical record. a sketchy cv Gerard Pietersz. himself is something of a spook. His biographer Arnold Houbrak- en (1660-1719) wrote of his origins: ‘Some say he was an Amsterdamer; others that he was from Leiden, the son of a framemaker named Pieter Gerretze’.2 For nearly a hundred years he has been said – usually with a question mark – to have been born in Haarlem, the son of a framemaker ‘who designed him to be a lawyer’s clerk’.3 On what grounds this rests I have been unable to ascertain. The issue was seem- ingly decided in favor of Leiden with the rediscovery of a remarkable document first published in 1875 but that remained unnoticed by art historians until Tom van der Molen came across it in November 2011 and had it inserted into the entry on the artist in the indispensable online database rkdartists&. It is the record of Van Zijl’s matriculation in Leiden University on 18 November 1652: ‘Gerardus Petri van Zyl, Leidensis. 44, Hist. Human. ergo’.4 Before closing the case, however, it must be said that a search on the exhaustive online facility of the Leiden archives (ar- chiefleiden.nl) turned up no record of a Pieter Gerritsz. or Gerrit Pietersz. van Zijl. Concerning Van Zijl’s date of birth we have confirmation of the matriculation entry in a sworn statement of 1646, where his age is said to be approximately 39. Both documents place his birth in 1607 or 1608.5 His burial on 19 December 1665 took place in the Oude Kerk, Amsterdam. He lived in the Warmoesstraat and his funeral cost the respectable sum of 15 guilders.6 The main facts concerning the career of Van Zijl are reported by Arnold Houbraken thus: It seems to me that in his artistic drive he followed in the footsteps of Anthonie van Dyck.

  • Henry, Duke of Gloucester C
    National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS Dutch Paintings of the Seventeenth Century Adriaen Hanneman Dutch, c. 1603/1604 - 1671 Henry, Duke of Gloucester c. 1653 oil on canvas overall: 104.8 x 87 cm (41 1/4 x 34 1/4 in.) framed: 128.91 x 111.13 x 11.43 cm (50 3/4 x 43 3/4 x 4 1/2 in.) Andrew W. Mellon Collection 1937.1.51 ENTRY The splendidly dressed youth in this three-quarter-length portrait looks out assuredly at the viewer. With a commanding gesture, he rests his right hand on a baton before him while he turns to his left and places his near hand over the hilt of a gold-topped rapier. His buff-colored doublet, richly brocaded with gold and silver threads, has split sleeves that reveal a white blouse with large, pleated cuffs. His breastplate is crossed by a blue ribbon that lies under his flat, white collar and tassel. The broadly painted brown rock cliff behind him and the distant landscape vista to the left provide a neutral background for this elegant figure. The identities both of the sitter and of the artist who painted him have been the subject of much speculation in the literature. [1] Descamps, the first to mention the painting while it was in the possession of Count Heinrich von Brühl (1700–1763) in Dresden, identified the work as a portrait of Willem II by Adriaen Hanneman. [2] Smith cataloged it in 1831 as a portrait by Sir Anthony van Dyck (Flemish, 1599 - 1641), and most, although not all, subsequent writers followed suit.

  • Evolution and Ambition in the Career of Jan Lievens (1607-1674)
    ABSTRACT Title: EVOLUTION AND AMBITION IN THE CAREER OF JAN LIEVENS (1607-1674) Lloyd DeWitt, Ph.D., 2006 Directed By: Prof. Arthur K. Wheelock, Jr. Department of Art History and Archaeology The Dutch artist Jan Lievens (1607-1674) was viewed by his contemporaries as one of the most important artists of his age. Ambitious and self-confident, Lievens assimilated leading trends from Haarlem, Utrecht and Antwerp into a bold and monumental style that he refined during the late 1620s through close artistic interaction with Rembrandt van Rijn in Leiden, climaxing in a competition for a court commission. Lievens’s early Job on the Dung Heap and Raising of Lazarus demonstrate his careful adaptation of style and iconography to both theological and political conditions of his time. This much-discussed phase of Lievens’s life came to an end in 1631when Rembrandt left Leiden. Around 1631-1632 Lievens was transformed by his encounter with Anthony van Dyck, and his ambition to be a court artist led him to follow Van Dyck to London in the spring of 1632. His output of independent works in London was modest and entirely connected to Van Dyck and the English court, thus Lievens almost certainly worked in Van Dyck’s studio. In 1635, Lievens moved to Antwerp and returned to history painting, executing commissions for the Jesuits, and he also broadened his artistic vocabulary by mastering woodcut prints and landscape paintings. After a short and successful stay in Leiden in 1639, Lievens moved to Amsterdam permanently in 1644, and from 1648 until the end of his career was engaged in a string of important and prestigious civic and princely commissions in which he continued to demonstrate his aptitude for adapting to and assimilating the most current style of his day to his own somber monumentality.

ISSN: 1949-9833 JHNA 1:1 (Winter 2009) 1 GERRIT DOU’S ENCHANTING TROMPE L’OEIL: VIRTUOSITY AND AGENCY IN EARLY MODERN COLLECTIONS Angela Ho This paper focuses on Painter with Pipe and Book (ca. 1650) by Gerrit Dou, a painter much admired by an exclusive circle of elite collectors in his own time. By incorporating a false frame and picture curtain, Dou transformed this work from a familiar “niche picture” into a depiction of a painting composed in his signature format. Drawing on anthropologist Alfred Gell’s concepts of enchantment and art nexus, I analyze how such a picture would have mediated the interactions between artist, owner, and viewer, enabling each agent to project his identity and shape one another’s response.

A series of samples was taken and cross-sections were prepared. The pigments and the binding medium were identified and compared to the materials readily available in 17th century Holland. Black and white, infra-red and ultra-violet photographs as well as X-radiographs were taken and are discussed. The results of this study were compared to 17th c. materials and techniques and to the literature. 3 INTRODUCTION The "Man with a Beer Keg" (oil on canvas 83cm x 66cm), painted around 1630 - 1633) appears in the literature in 1932. [1] It was discovered in London in 1930. It had been in private hands and was, at the time, celebrated as an example of an unsuspected and startling find of an old master.
