EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the introsive and scholarly disposition of Pieter Nanninck, also known as Nannius (1500-1557), a prominent Dutch humanist and scholar of the Renaissance period. The image, created around 1557, depicts Nannius in a serious and contemplative mood, with furrowed brows and a fur-lined hat resting on the table before him. The hat, a sign of his scholarly status, is adorned with a feather, adding an air of distinction to his appearance. Nannius was a prolific writer and editor, known for his work on classical texts and his contributions to the Dutch language. He was a key figure in the Dutch Humanist movement, which sought to revive the study of ancient Greek and Roman texts and promote the use of the Dutch language in scholarship. Nannius' publications included editions of works by Cicero, Seneca, and other classical authors, as well as translations of Plutarch's Lives and the works of the Dutch humanist Desiderius Erasmus. In this portrait, Nannius is shown in the midst of his scholarly pursuits, with a book open before him and a pair of scissors in hand. The trimming of the pages suggests that he is engaged in the painstaking work of editing and correcting texts, a task that would have been essential in the era before the widespread use of printing presses. The portrait offers a glimpse into the dedication and focus required of scholars during the Renaissance, and the importance of their work in preserving and advancing knowledge. Overall, this portrait of Pieter Nanninck offers a fascinating glimpse into the life of a Dutch humanist scholar of the Renaissance period, and the intense focus and dedication required to make significant contributions to the world of scholarship.
