EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed Abraham Patras, who served as Governor General of the Dutch East India Company from 1735 to 1737. The portrait depicts him standing confidently, halfway turned towards the viewer, with his command staff held firmly in his right hand. A striking family crest adorns the bottom left corner of the image, symbolizing his noble lineage and distinguished status. Part of a remarkable series featuring portraits of former governors-general of the Dutch East Indies, this particular artwork captures Patras' authoritative presence and historical significance. His tenure marked an era of colonial governance and exploration in Southeast Asia. The artist skillfully employed copper as a medium for this masterpiece, enhancing its durability and adding depth to every brushstroke. The use of oil paint further enriches the colors and textures, bringing out Patras' regal attire and intricate details. Displayed within this print is not just a representation of one man's legacy but also a testament to an entire epoch shaped by influential figures like Abraham Patras. It serves as a reminder that history is composed not only by grand events but also by individuals who leave their indelible mark on society.
