| Portraits of Jacob Trip and his Wife Margaretha de Geer by Rembrandt at the National Gallery in London UK . These portraits are particularly large examples, reflecting the status of the couple, Jacob Trip and Margaretha de Geer ââ¬â who belonged to one of the richest families in Holland. They were probably commissioned by two of the Tripsââ¬Ë sons, to be hung in a palatial residence which they were building in Amsterdam. The poses are unusual. Normally weââ¬â¢d expect each sitter to be half turned towards the other. But Margaretha faces the viewer directly. She may be sitting on her husbandââ¬â¢s inferior side, but Rembrandt seems to imply that she is the more active and engaged of the two. |
