Maerten van Heemskerck
Maerten van Heemskerck or Marten Jacobsz Heemskerk van Veen (1 June 1498 – 1 October 1574) was a Dutch portrait and religious painter, who spent most of his career in Haarlem.
With important loans from the Noord-Holland Provincial Archives and the Rijksmuseum, Teylers Museum will show a selection of the best contemporary prints of Heemskerck’s work, alongside two etchings by Rembrandt from its own collection.

Extensive research
Prior to the exhibition Professor Emeritus Ilja Veldman, who is also the guest curator at all three museums, has performed extensive research.
While there, Heemskerck also encountered the work of Michelangelo, Raphael and their contemporaries. Her work has produced some important new insights, including changes to attributions, identifications of portrait subjects, and also new information on Heemskerck’s network and process.

Publication
A book on the life and work of Maarten van Heemskerck written by Professor Emeritus Ilja Veldman, with additional contributions on Heemskerck’s materials and techniques by Jessica Roeders and Mireille te Marvelde (conservators at the Frans Hals Museum), will be published to accompany the exhibition.
He is rightly regarded as one of the most important 16th-century artists of the Northern Netherlands.
They knew each other because Foppesz owned land in Heemskerk. Among these are the Capitoline Brutus, van Heemskerck being the first known artist to make a sketch of this now famous bust.

In the late sixteenth century, many Netherlanders saw Rome through Heemskerck's eyes.

Three distinct periods
Each museum will showcase a distinct period from the life of this influential and successful 16th-century artist.
No longer simply an employee working for a patron, the painter here has made himself the chief subject of his own work.
Heemskerck's proud and serious face dominates the foreground. At the time, a portrait in such a realistic domestic setting was something entirely new. In this painting, Heemskerck depicts a woman working at a spinning wheel indoors, with a basket containing scissors and yarn hanging behind her on the wall.
He produced many designs for engravers, and is especially known for his depictions of the Wonders of the World.
Heemskerck was born in the village of Heemskerk, North Holland, halfway between Alkmaar and Haarlem. Following extensive research, however, the team succeeded in performing what can rightly be called a groundbreaking restoration. The conservation work has also given us more information about the artist’s studio practice, and how innovative he was for his time.
In ‘To Rome’, Stedelijk Museum Alkmaar will present an account of Heemskerck’s trip to Italy and show how it resulted in work that was audacious and – at that time – surprising and innovative. Institutions including The Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza (Madrid), The National Gallery (London), the Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam), the National Museum in Warsaw and the Kupferstichkabinett (Berlin) will lend important pieces, many of which have never before been exhibited in the Netherlands.
His other works for Foppesz included two life size figures symbolising the Sun and the Moon on a bedstead, and a picture of Adam and Eve "rather smaller but (it is said) after living models".
