Description
Nederlands: Sophia Hedwig als Caritas: Sophia Hedwig (1591-1642) was de eerste, die een dergelijke gewaagde compositie aandurfde. In 1621 liet zij zich door de Utrechtse portretschilder Paulus Moreelse uitschilderen in de gedaante van Caritas, de naastenliefde en in dit geval ook de moederliefde. De gravin is omringd door haar drie kinderen en haar oudste zoon reikt haar een schaal met vruchten aan, het traditionele symbool van naastenliefde. De reden waarom een dergelijk gewaagd portret accepté was, was omdat iedereen begreep dat het ‘niet echt’ was. Onder andere door de Oosters aandoende fantasiekleding wordt het tafereel op een hoger, abstracter niveau geplaatst. Alleen de min (voedster) met de baby op de achtergrond is realistisch: zij is in eigentijdse kleding gestoken en relativeert de boodschap: de voorname dame met de ontblote borst voedt haar kinderen natuurlijk niet zelf, maar heeft daar haar personeel voor.

The author died in 1638, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.
The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
