EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Matthew Augustijnsz Steyn, a distinguished Councilor in the College of the Admiralty of the Northern Quarter in Dokkum. Standing with an air of authority, he holds a glove delicately in his right hand while clutching a folded letter or document in his left. His attire is both elegant and commanding - draped in a black cloak adorned with fur lining around his shoulders. The artist has paid attention to detail by including Steyn's family crest on the right side of the portrait. Additionally, two folded letters are visible on the top left corner, marked with significant locations such as Haarlem and Amsterdam, suggesting Steyn's involvement beyond just local affairs. Painted by Pieter Pietersz (I) in 1588 using oil paint on panel, this piece measures 108 cm high, 85 cm wide, and 9 cm deep. The composition exudes an aura of power and intellect that befits someone holding such esteemed positions within the Admiralty College. This remarkable artwork captures not only Steyn's physical appearance but also hints at his influence and connections throughout Friesland. It serves as a testament to his accomplishments during his lifetime from 1539 to 1606.
