EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable portrait of Jan Pietersz Coen, the esteemed Governor General of the Dutch East Indies. The image captures him standing confidently, half-turned to the right, with a walking stick held firmly in his right hand. This exquisite piece is believed to be part of a series that features copies of portraits depicting the governors-general who once governed the former Dutch East Indies under the auspices of the renowned Dutch East India Company. Jan Pietersz Coen was an influential figure during his tenure as Governor General from 1619-1623 and again from 1627-1629. His leadership played a pivotal role in shaping Batavia (now Jakarta) into a thriving colonial city. Despite controversy surrounding some of his actions, Coen's contributions cannot be denied. The anonymous artist behind this copy skillfully captured Coen's commanding presence and dignified demeanor. Painted on panel using oil paint, this artwork measures approximately 33 cm in height by 25 cm in width and has a depth of 3.5 cm. This print serves as both an homage to Jan Pietersz Coen's legacy and as a testament to the rich history between Indonesia and its former colonizers. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect upon this complex period while appreciating the artistry involved in preserving such historical treasures for generations to come.
