About this work
Portrait of Jan Nicquet (1539-1608), merchant and art collector, depicted half-length. Below the image four lines of Latin and four lines of Dutch text in calligraphy. Translation of the Latin text: You, my son, do not look at my face or merely at my appearance, but I have also performed praiseworthy and imitable deeds. I, Nicquet, send my Body in the Right Way. Follow me and you will be the Living Image of your father.
