Portrait of Jacob Cats, 1618, Adriaen Pietersz. van de Venne, 1618 Canvas Print

Portrait of Jacob Cats (1577-1660), sitting at a table, pointing in a book that lies before him. At the back left, on a windowsill, an hourglass. Through the window on the left you can see the Munnikenhof near Grijpskerke, Cats' country house in the years 1603-1623. Presumably this is the earliest known portrait of the poet-statesman. That the drawing is certainly intended to be presented in print can be deduced from the fact that Cats' family coat of arms, at the bottom right, is depicted in a mirror image. Design for a print.
