EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the stern and determined gaze of Jan van Riebeeck (1619-1677), Commander of the Cape of Good Hope and of Malacca, and Secretary of the High Government of Batavia, in the late 17th century. The Dutch administrator is depicted wearing the attire of the time, with a high collar, voluminous sleeves, and a fur-trimmed cape. His hands are occupied with a telescope in one hand and a pair of gloves in the other, symbolizing his roles as a navigator and a man of authority. The low country native, hailing from the Netherlands Europe, stands tall and proud, exuding an air of confidence and purpose. The oil on canvas painting, created in the 17th century, showcases the historic figure in a formal setting, with a plain background that allows the viewer to focus solely on the subject. The portrait, held in the Rijksmuseum collection, is a testament to the rich heritage of the Dutch colonial era and the impact of the Dutch East India Company on the world's history. The portrait's direct gaze and the intricate details of van Riebeeck's clothing and accessories make it a fascinating study of fashion and the concept of colonialism during this period.
