EDITORS COMMENTS
Jan Woutersz Stap's Office of the Steward, painted around 1636, captures a heartfelt moment of exchange and fatherhood in the Dutch Golden Age. The painting, also known as the Office of the Notary Intendant or the Intendant's Office, depicts an elderly man, likely a steward, seated at a table, his hand on his chest in a sincere and serious posture. Two boys, one bearded man, and a bird perched on the table add intrigue to the scene. The bearded man, possibly the steward's son, interacts with the children, while the elder man exchanges a deed or agreement with another man off-frame. The rich colors and details of the painting transport us back to the 17th century, a time of prosperity and heritage in the Low Countries. The men wear traditional Dutch headgear, including headdresses and headscarves, adding to the authenticity of the scene. The boys, dressed in simple clothing, play with the chicken, adding a touch of innocence and warmth to the painting. The Office of the Steward is an excellent example of Dutch Golden Age art, with its intricate details, realistic portrayal of people, and exploration of themes of family, fatherhood, and the exchange of goods and deeds. The painting is now a cherished piece of European history, housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
