Painting Description
"Jan Uytenbogaert, Gen. Der Goldwager" is a renowned etching and drypoint work by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created in 1639. The piece is a portrait of Jan Uytenbogaert (1608–1680), a Dutch Calvinist preacher who was known as "The Goldweigher" due to his role as the Receiver-General, a position involving the management of finances for the church. This work is one of Rembrandt's many portraits that not only capture the physical likeness of the subject but also convey a sense of their character and social standing.
The etching measures approximately 28.1 cm by 22.4 cm and is characterized by Rembrandt's skillful use of light and shadow, which brings depth and texture to the image. Rembrandt's mastery in etching allowed him to achieve a high level of detail and a rich tonality that rivals his work in oil painting. The portrait shows Uytenbogaert seated at a table, surrounded by the tools of his trade, which include scales for weighing gold. His expression is contemplative, suggesting a man of intellect and responsibility.
"Jan Uytenbogaert, Gen. Der Goldwager" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context. It provides insight into the economic and religious life of 17th-century Holland, a time when the Dutch Republic was at the height of its power and influence. The work is held in high esteem by art historians and is considered an important example of portraiture from the Dutch Golden Age.
The etching is part of several major museum collections and has been the subject of extensive art historical research. It continues to be a subject of interest for scholars studying Rembrandt's technique and his contributions to the development of printmaking in Europe.
