Bust of Piet Heyn, Hendrick de Keyser (II) (attributed to), 1636
Piet Heyn became a seaman at a young age. When he was fifteen years old, he was taken prisoner by the Spanish and made to serve two years as a galley slave. After his release, Heyn pursued a career in the merchant marine: he held high-ranking positions in the Dutch West India Company. In 1628 he captured a Spanish treasure fleet (known as the ‘Silver Fleet’) off the coast of Cuba. A year later he perished at sea.

Allegory of the Sciences

Textielmagnaat Philips de Flines was een ware kunstliefhebber. Zijn pand aan de Herengracht richtte hij in met een speciale kunstkamer, die hij liet decoreren door Gerard de Lairesse. De kunstenaar vervaardigde vijf schilderijen in zwart en wit - ‘grisailles’ - met verbeeldingen van positieve eigenschappen van De Flines. Het bevorderen van de wetenschappen was bijvoorbeeld een van de goede eigenschappen van een edelman.
