Portret van Hendrick Peter Godfried Quack
Peering through delicate pince-nez glasses, this distinguished gentleman is Hendrick Peter Godfried Quack, a major figure in Dutch economics and history. This portrait appeared as a supplement in the weekly magazine 'De Amsterdammer' on February 2, 1896, showcasing the artist Ferdinand Hart Nibbrig's skills in lithography. While Nibbrig is famous for his 'Luminist' paintings—sun-drenched landscapes filled with tiny dots of bright color—this monochromatic print proves he could capture a serious, intellectual likeness just as effectively.
