About the Item

Thomas VAN DER WILT (1659-1733) "Portrait of Noble Woman", oil on canvas 55cm x 46cm without frame 65cm x 56cm with frame very good conditions Thomas van der Wilt (1659–1733) was an 18th-century painter from the Dutch Republic. Biography Van der Wilt was born in Piershil. Houbraken mentioned him as one of the pupils of Jan Verkolje. He became a master portrait painter in Delft, where he died. According to the RKD he became the teacher of Jacob Campo Weyerman. He is known for portraits and historical allegories. Thomas van der Wilt was born in Piershil (near Spijkenisse) as the son of the cloth merchant Willem van der Wilt and his wife Emmerentia van der Staf. He received his artistic training from Jan Verkolje (1650–1693), who took Thomas under his care upon the recommendation of the engraver Jan Goeree, who had discovered the youngster's talent. Van der Wilt settled in Delft, where he was the leading portrait painter in the first decades of the eighteenth century. Many prominent citizens sat for him, including Leiden burgomaster Adriaan van der Goes van Naters, as well as Haarlem burgomaster Cornelis Colterman, not to mention the well-known Amsterdam art collector Valerius Röver. Van der Wilt was praised for his meticulous depiction of fine fabrics and carefully drawn hands, and his talent in these respects can be clearly seen in this work. Van der Wilt also painted the portrait of the Delft writer and poet Hubert Kornelisz Poot.3 Upon Van der Wilt’s death in 1733, Poot wrote the following lines on the painter: ‘Hier sluimert VANDER WILT, 't thought ten roem geboren. O gy, die kunst waerdeert, betreurt den schrandren man. From schildermin, helaes! heeft meer aen hem verreren Dan op den breedsten zerk de beitel schryven kan.’
