Abraham de Vries - Regents of the city orphanage in Amsterdam - 1633

In the background, the "binnenvader" is leading a young girl to meet the regents. She is clothed in the characteristic orphan dress. From left to right, the regents are: Gerrit Pietersz. Schaep, Gerbrand Claesz. Pancras, Nicolaes van Campen, Frans de Neve, Cornelis Jacobsz. Wayer, Nicolaes Hasselaer.

Pictured in the group portrait are the regents who were responsible for the major renovation of the Burgerweeshuis orphanage in Amsterdam during the years 1630-1634. The arrangement of the composition is very original: de Vries split the regents in two groups: one group on the left-hand side is composed of standing figures and the other on the right-hand side consists of sitting figures. In the background in the middle of the composition a member of staff of the orphanage leads a small orphan girl into the room and thereby links up the two groups. Abraham de Vries may have been the first artist to introduce a child as an "attribute" in a regents group portrait.[6] The portrait of the regents is still ‘’in situ’’ on the wall for which it was designed in the regent's room of the orphanage.

Abraham de Vries (ca.1590–1649 or 1650) was a Dutch painter who was one of the leading portraitists of his age. As he led a peripatetic lifestyle and worked in France, Antwerp and the Dutch Republic his stylistic qualities are difficult to pin down.

" - Restam-lhe, porventura, alguns desses desejos que atormentam os eclesiásticos jovens, e que tanto nos dão que fazer a nós, os que temos responsabilidades? - Restam-me, Excelência, tentações de violência, vontade de correr tudo à bordoada, quando vejo uma injustiça."

Tjerk Bottema - Cartoon of Abraham Kuyper "Lousy Sinterklaas" - December 5, 1909

Abraham Kuijper (29 October 1837 – 8 November 1920), publicly known as Abraham Kuyper, was Prime Minister of the Netherlands between 1901 and 1905, an influential neo-Calvinist theologian and also a journalist. He established the Reformed Churches in the Netherlands, which upon its foundation became the second largest Reformed denomination in the country behind the state-supported Dutch Reformed Church.

In addition, he founded a newspaper, the Free University of Amsterdam and the Anti-Revolutionary Party. In religious affairs, he sought to adapt the Dutch Reformed Church to challenges posed by the loss of state financial aid and by increasing religious pluralism in the wake of splits that the church had undergone in the 19th century, rising Dutch nationalism, and the Arminian religious revivals of his day which denied predestination. He vigorously denounced modernism in theology as a fad that would pass away. In politics, he dominated the Anti-Revolutionary Party (ARP) from its founding in 1879 to his death in 1920. He promoted pillarisation, the social expression of the anti-thesis in public life, whereby Protestant, Catholic and secular elements each had their own independent schools, universities and social organisations.

Pillarisation (Dutch: verzuiling) is the politico-denominational segregation of a society. These societies were (and in some areas, still are) "vertically" divided into several segments or "pillars" (zuilen, singular zuil) according to different religions or ideologies. The best-known examples of this have historically occurred in the Netherlands and Belgium.

These pillars all have their own social institutions: their own newspapers, broadcasting organisations, political parties, trade unions and farmers' associations, banks, schools, hospitals, universities, Scouting organisations and sports clubs. Some companies even hire only personnel of a specific religion or ideology. This leads to a situation where many people have no personal contact with people from another pillar.

Austrian, Iraqi Arab, Israeli, Lebanese, Maltese, Nigerian, Northern Irish, and Scottish societies may also be considered to have displayed aspects of pillarisation, historically or in the present time.

Tjerk Bottema (Bovenknijpe (municipality of Schoterland) 4 March 1882 - died on the sea on 21 June 1940) was a Dutch visual artist.

Bottema was born in 1882 as the son of the farmer Johannes Bottema and Tjitske de Vries. He was educated at the arts and crafts school Quellinus in Amsterdam. From 1901 to 1904 he followed the course at the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam. He was a pupil of August Allebé, Georg Sturm and Nicolaas van der Waay. He also received lessons at the Academy of Antwerp. Bottema worked as a visual artist in various locations in Friesland and outside Friesland in the province of North Holland and in Amsterdam. He worked abroad in Belgium, Germany, England, France and Italy.

Bottema was, among other things, draftsman, painter and graphic designer. For example, he produced prints for the political-satirical magazine De Notenkraker.

Bottema died on June 21, 1940 when the ship the Berenice was torpedoed in the Channel. On board the ship were also the poet Hendrik Marsman and his wife.

He was the brother of the well-known artist Tjeerd Bottema.

varnish and plaster... the well-known mirage of the desert

  ... but all to no avail , and in the end even those who are least seriously minded have had enough of such puttering. The tactics of covering things over is no longer wanted. The honeymoon days of spiritual insensibility are ended.

— above from google books snippet (only), pointing to Abraham Kuyper, “A Fata Morgana” (translated from the Dutch by the Rev. John Hendrik de Vries, D. D.), The Methodist Review (March 1906) : 185-203 (187) Second Part (May 1906) : 355-378 (both at hathitrust)

the landing passage (at 187-88) in full —

Thus speaks faith, and the spirit of our times urges this claim and in turn stimulates one to this self-defense, provided the intention is serious. The men who deal in varnish and plaster have indeed long and bravely tried to cover over, artfully and ingeniously every split and tear in our social life, but all to no avail, and in the end even those who are least seriously minded have had enough of such puttering. The tactics of covering things over is no longer wanted. The honeymoon days of spiritual insensibility are ended. At last we have learned that that conventional form is a tombstone and not a shield. Courage has been restored in the blood and luster in the dull eye. We dare take it again as a matter of course to ride an opponent unsparingly in the harness. Yea, we have even so far advanced that the sympathy of the more wide-awake spirits is forfeited when one pretends to confess the Christ after the Scriptures while avoiding war with modernism. Just because, however, of the seriousness of this conflict, the attack may never seek strength in underestimation nor may it degenerate into abuse. He who does not appreciate his opponent does not attack him, but the phantom of his own fancy. This style of warfare I wish to avoid. The very appreciation of modernism shall furnish me the ground of opposition; and I cannot state more briefly and accurately both what I appreciate in modernism and what I oppose in that spiritual tendency than by considering modernism as the “fata Morgana in the Christian domain.” To elucidate this figure, by which I desire to sketch the character of my opponent, permit me a brief explanation of this somewhat foreign term.       “Una fata” is the Italian for what we call “a fairy.” Among these forms of the imagination there was one to which the Italian peasantry gave the name of Morgana, and from this fairy the inhabitants of Reggio borrowed the name of “fata Morgana" for a beautiful aerial phenomenon which, as they said, was painted by her scepter upon Reggio’s horizon. The phenomenon itself should not be mixed up with the well-known mirage of the desert...

In addition, he founded the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the Anti-Revolutionary Party, and a newspaper. He vigorously ridiculed modernism in theology as a new-fangled fad based on a superficial view of reality. He argued that modernism missed the reality of God, of prayer, of sin, and of the church. He said modernism would eventually prove as useless as ‘A Squeezed Out Lemon Peel,’ while traditional religious truths would survive. — wikipedia
