Portraitist Jan de Baen was Court Painter to the exiled Charles II of England at The Hague. Here we see Cornelis de Witt, who fell out of favor with the citizens of the Dutch Republic; a mob first destroyed the home of the ill-fated politician and later martyred him and his brother Johan de Witt. This remarkable Mixed-Media tableau is a historical reminder that the ways of government are fraught with peril. Perfect for period-style decorating and luxury apartments at the St. Urban in New York City.
