Pieter Haringh, by Rembrandt

An image of Pieter Haringh. Young Haringh. Jacob Thomasz. Haringh. Rembrandt Harmensz. van Rijn (Dutch, 1606-1669). Etching, drypoint, engraving, black carbon ink on vellum, height, plate, 188 mm, width, plate, 145 mm; height, sheet, 193 mm, width, sheet, 149 mm, 1655. Production Note: II/V. The plate showing the original seated portrait cut down to show only the bust of the sitter. Notes: The sitter was the second cousin of Thomas Jacobsz. Haringh, and worked as a Receiver in the Amsterdam Orphan's court and regulated voluntary auctions. This probably brought him into contact with Rembrandt in 1655, when the artist attempted to stave off bankruptcy by holding a voluntary sale. This portrait was long thought to represent Jacob Thomasz. Haringh, the lawyer son of Thomas Jacobsz. Haringh who was portrayed by Rembrandt around the same time as Pieter Haringh (see 23.K.5-359), and who was also involved in the sale of the artist's possessions. Alternative Number(s): Hollstein (Dutch/Flemish); B275 II/V. Biörklund/Barnard; BB55-E II/V. Lugt; 2475.
