Description

Portrait of Matthijs Cock from the Pictorum aliquot celebrium praecipue Germaniae inferioris Effigies (Effigies of some celebrated painters, chiefly of Lower Germany), published by Hendrik Hondius I in The Hague in 1610

Transcription of Latin inscription by Dominicus Lampsonius:

MATTHIÆ COCO ANVERPIAN. PICTORI. HIERONYMI FRATRI.
Tu quoque, Matthia, sic pingere rura sciebas,
Ut tibi vix dederint tempora nostra parem.
Ergo, quod artifices inter spectaris et ipse,
Quos immortalis Belgica laude colit;
Non in te pietas tantem fraterna, sed arti
Efficit et merito laus tribuenda tuae.


Translation of Inscription:

To Matthias Cock of Antwerp, painter, brother of Hieronymus.

You too, Matthias, knew how to paint fields in such a way, that our age has scarcely produced your equal. Therefore, if you too are considered among the artists whom Belgium honours with immortal praise, not only fraternal piety grants this to you, but also the praise justly due to your skill.
