EDITORS COMMENTS
This phototype print showcases the renowned Dutch poet and playwright, Joost van den Vondel. Created between 1884-90 by an anonymous German School artist, this image captures the essence of a literary genius from the 17th century. The photograph is based on an engraving by Cornelis de Visscher, a skilled artist who lived during Vondel's time. De Visscher's intricate details are beautifully preserved in this print, allowing us to admire his craftsmanship even centuries later. Vondel, born in 1587 and passing away in 1679, was a prominent figure in Dutch literature. His works encompassed various genres including poetry and drama. Known for his eloquence and profound insights into human nature, he left an indelible mark on the literary world. Published as part of Dr. Woldemar von Seidlitz's "Allgemeines Historisches Porträtwerk" (General Historical Portrait Work), this phototype print serves as a testament to Vondel's enduring legacy. The publication aimed to preserve historical portraits for future generations to appreciate. Now housed in a private collection, this remarkable piece offers us a glimpse into the past while celebrating one of Holland's most celebrated wordsmiths. With its impeccable composition and attention to detail, it reminds us of the power that art has to transcend time and connect us with great minds from history.
