Fine engraving. Plate 187 x 152mm. 7¼ x 6".
The Remonstrant pastor and poet Camphuysen was not too keen on portraits: ‘this lifeless thing/ but a shadow of its real self' was part of a verse he wrote on portrait paintings. The portrait is framed by the symbols for Faith, Hope and Love; cherubs seated on clouds to the upper right reading, and upper left playing a violin and cello. Dirk Rafelsz Camphuysen (1586-1627) was a Dutch painter, poet and theologian. He was working in Leiden and Amersfoort. He was better known as a preacher and poet.
