Note du spécialiste

Pieter Nason was one of the leading portraitists in Holland in the mid- 17th century. His modern style reflected a synthesis of the influences of Sir Anthony van Dyck and Gerrit Honthorst, comparable to Adriaen Hanneman. Like Hanneman, he found employment among the visiting English court in exile, making at least one portrait of Charles II which was engraved several times in the 1660s; and two portraits of royalist courtiers (National Portrait Gallery, London, NPG 4978 and 5235).
