1507 1577 Arched Boulonois Frame Jurist Trimming Vigilius
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts Vigilius Zuichem, also known as Vigilius van Zuylen or Vigile Boulonois, a renowned Dutch jurist and scholar of the late 16th century. Born in 1507, Zuichem made significant contributions to the field of law, particularly in the areas of civil and criminal procedure. He is best known for his magnum opus, "De Institutis Criminalibus," a comprehensive treatise on criminal law that was published in 1577. The image captures Zuichem in a thoughtful and contemplative pose, with a fur-trimmed robe and a serious expression. The arched background adds a sense of grandeur and importance to the portrait, reflecting Zuichem's esteemed position in Dutch society. The intricate trimming on the robe and the detailed fur lining are beautifully rendered, showcasing the high-quality craftsmanship of the print. Despite his impressive accomplishments, Zuichem's life was marked by tragedy. He was forced to flee the Netherlands during the religious wars of the late 16th century and spent the final years of his life in exile in France. Nevertheless, his legacy as a legal scholar endured, and his works continue to be studied and revered by scholars of law and history today. This print, with its intricate details and historical significance, is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Dutch Golden Age. It offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable figure who made significant strides in the field of law, despite the challenges and turmoil of his time. The print is a must-have for any collection focused on Dutch history, jurisprudence, or portraiture.
