Cornelis Troost, 1736 - Portrait of a Member of the Van der Mersch Family - fine art print

Additional information on the original artwork from Rijksmuseum (© Copyright - Rijksmuseum - www.rijksmuseum.nl)

This portrait invites us to enter the room and enjoy art and music with this gentleman. Typical of the 18th century is the lack of distance between sitter and viewer: the likeness is not intimidating. We stand face to face with a cheerful young man, member of a wealthy Mennonite family from Amsterdam. The visit has caught him unawares: on his shoulder are traces of powder spilled while he powdered his wig.
