Inscription: lower right: Rembrandt. f. 1661 Widener Collection 1942.9.60 ENTRY The only mention of the circumcision of Christ occurs in the Gospel of Luke, 2:15–22: “the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem.... And they came with haste, and found Mary and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.... And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called Jesus.” This cursory reference to this most significant event in the early childhood of Christ allowed artists throughout history a wide latitude in the way they represented the circumcision. [1] The predominant Dutch pictorial tradition was to depict the scene as though it occurred within the temple, as, for example, in Hendrick Goltzius (Dutch, 1558 - 1617)’ influential engraving of the Circumcision of Christ, 1594 [fig. 1]. [2] In the Goltzius print, the mohel circumcises the Christ child, held by the high priest, as Mary and Joseph stand reverently to the side. Rembrandt largely followed this tradition in his two early etchings of the subject and in his 1646 painting of the Circumcision for Prince Frederik Hendrik (now lost). [3] The Circumcision 1 © National Gallery of Art, Washington National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS Dutch Paintings of the Seventeenth Century The iconographic tradition of the circumcision occurring in the temple, which was almost certainly apocryphal, developed in the twelfth century to allow for a typological comparison between the Jewish rite of circumcision and the Christian rite of cleansing, or baptism.

  • Govert Loockermans (1617?-1671?) and His Relatives: How an Adolescent from Turnhout Worked His Way up in the New World
    Govert Loockermans (1617?-1671?) and his relatives: How an adolescent from Turnhout worked his way up in the New World Willem Frijhoff (Erasmus University, Rotterdam / VU-University, Amsterdam) [Revised version, January 7, 2016] Summary This contribution aims at painting a picture of the person, the strategy and career of Govert Loockermans, paying special attention to the relationship he and his family in the New World had with Turnhout, and to the role played by the complex network of his relatives in the formation of New Netherland and of New York. He abandoned his Catholic Faith, and it appears that he soon ceased all contact with his blood relatives in Turnhout. He was not only a vigilant and cunning merchant, who amassed a large fortune for that time, but also a ruthless pioneer. We could see him as an icon of the current Wall Street capitalist. Either way, he was a man who helped determine and shape the age he lived in. His destiny continues to fascinate us. Govert Loockermans, the American hero from Turnhout, is the classic example of the ‘famous unknown’ gracing so many history books. He does not appear in any national dictionary, nor is he counted among the about thirty ‘famous Turnhoutenaren’ on the Turnhout tab of Wikipedia. Some of his deeds in the founding history of the country that later would become the United States are indeed very well known—even if not always flattering—but the history of his life in New Amsterdam, present day New York, has only been told a handful of times.

  • Ernest Mandel in Resistance: Revolutionary Socialists in Belgium, 1940-1945 Jan-Willem Stutje
    Ernest Mandel in Resistance: Revolutionary Socialists in Belgium, 1940-1945 Jan-Willem Stutje Ernest Mandel, the Flemish Marxist theoretician and radical political activist, was enormously influential on the left during the second half of the last centu- ry. His writings were published in more than 40 languages in editions of mil- lions of copies. He was the second most translated Belgian author, surpassed only by the novelist Georges Simenon. Mandel was an orator who addressed stadiums filled with audiences of 20,000 people during the Portuguese 'Revolution of Carnations,' and at the same time a celebrated scholar who delivered the prestigious Alfred Marshal1 Lectures in 1978 at Cambridge University. He wrote a study of the development of the crime novel (Delightful Murder), but also the learned introductions to the Penguin translation of the three volumes of Marx's Das Kapital. On the occasion of his death, the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung commented: "This Belgian political scientist had more anathemas pronounced against him than anyone else, from both the right and the orthodox left.... But for the 1968 generation the name Mandel stood for both a source of inspiration and an example. ..."l It is Mandel's less- er-known, politically formative years, however, that provides the focus for this article. I. Background Many different streams contributed to Mandel's life. The different streams can be summarized in his biography as the tale of a young rebel from a middle- class, Jewish left-wing milieu, whose encounters with a circle of political refugees in the 1930s and during the Nazi occupation, fostered in him a funda- mentally internationalist attitude.

ISSN: 1949-9833 JHNA 5:2 (Summer 2013) 1 ABRAHAM MEETING THE LORD AND TWO ANGELS: MAKING THE CASE FOR FERDINAND BOL AND WORKSHOP Jan L. Leja Ferdinand Bol (1618–1680) is credited with the authorship of two drawings of the same subject, Abraham Meeting the Angels. One is a quickly drawn sketch and the other is a detailed drawing. The former is housed in the Rijkspren- tenkabinet, Amsterdam, the latter, in the Graphsiche Sammlung Albertina, Vienna. This article examines two aspects of these works, subject and authorship.
