EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of a Dutch Burgomaster in the 17th century. Painted by Nicolaes Eliasz, also known as Pickenoy, this oil on canvas print showcases the distinguished and authoritative figure of a local government leader. Standing at an impressive 111.9x81.3 cm, it is now housed in The Holburne Museum in Bath, UK. The burgomaster's attire exudes power and elegance with his black pleated doublet adorned with braided details. His austere yet refined costume is complemented by a lace-edged cuff and satin ruff that add a touch of formality to his appearance. A meticulously groomed moustache frames his imperious expression, emphasizing his status as a respected town master. Every detail in this painting speaks volumes about the subject's position and importance within society. From the carefully crafted bobbin lace on his gloves to the intricate braid work on his clothing, no aspect has been overlooked. This portrait not only serves as a historical record but also offers us insight into the world of Dutch governance during this period. It symbolizes an era when mayors held significant influence over their communities and were revered for their leadership skills. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we are transported back in time to witness the presence and authority emanating from this Dutch Burgomaster - forever immortalized through Eliasz's brushstrokes.
