EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Governor-General Jan Pietersz Coen, a prominent figure in Dutch colonial history. Standing confidently with a walking stick in his right hand, he exudes authority and leadership. The portrait, painted on a panel using oil paint, measures 97.5 cm in height and 77.5 cm in width. Jan Pietersz Coen served as Governor-General of the Dutch East Indies from 1619 to 1623 and again from 1627 to 1629. His tenure was marked by significant contributions to the development of Batavia (now Jakarta) and the expansion of Dutch influence in the region. The top left corner features his family crest, symbolizing his noble lineage and heritage. This portrait is part of a series that pays tribute to all governors-general who governed the former Dutch East Indies during this era. While acknowledging Jan Pietersz Coen's historical significance as a colonial governor for the Dutch East India Company, it is important not to overlook or glorify any potential negative aspects associated with his rule. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate both its artistic value and its role in preserving an important chapter of our shared past. It serves as a reminder of how individuals like Jan Pietersz Coen shaped history through their actions within complex colonial contexts.
