EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the distinguished figure of Cornelis Calkoen, a renowned Dutch ambassador who served in the Ottoman Empire during the 18th century. The artist's skillful brushstrokes bring to life Calkoen's commanding presence as he sits with knee bent in a regal chair, exuding an air of authority and sophistication. Calkoen's role as Ambassador to the Ottoman Empire in Constantinople (Istanbul) from 1727 to 1744 is highlighted by his attire, which reflects both his Dutch heritage and his integration into Turkish culture. The intricate details of his clothing, meticulously captured by the anonymous painter, symbolize the diplomatic bridge between two worlds. The backdrop of Constantinople adds depth and context to this portrait. It serves as a reminder of Calkoen's pivotal position at the Hoge Porte, where he navigated complex political landscapes and fostered relations between nations. This image not only immortalizes Calkoen but also captures a significant period in history when East met West. Preserved on canvas with oil paint, this artwork stands as a testament to both artistic mastery and historical significance. Its dimensions - h 106 cm x w 76.5 cm x d 8 cm - command attention while allowing viewers to appreciate every minute detail that contributes to its overall grandeur. As part of the Liszt Collection, this print offers us an opportunity to delve into Cornelis Calkoen's remarkable legacy without commercial intentions or implications. It
