| Buyer Notes | On 21 August 1604, Abraham van der Voort Artus, from Antwerp, 26 years old, living on the Warmoesstraet, assisted by Margrieta Kox, widow Van der Voort, his mother, was betrothed to Elisabeth Cornelis Reckenaers, from Gent, iving in Leyden (DTB 762A/205). His father Artus van der Voort was a cloth merchant, who emigrated from Antwerp in 1585. On 29 September 1599, Abraham van der Voort, cloth merchant, became a citizen of Amsterdam (Oud Holland 7(1889), p. 20). On 19 April 1618, Abraham van der Voort and Elijsabet de Reckenaer had their daughter Catharijna baptized in the O.K. in the presence of Cornelis de Klerck and Catharijna van Meerlant (DTB 5/245). Abraham van der Voort, the buyer of this lot, may be identical with the individual of that name who invested 300 f. in V.O.C. shares in the Kamer Enkhuizen of the V.O.C. in 1602 (unpublished list, kindly supplied by Roelof van Gelder). Sara van der Voort, married to Guilliaem Seneschael of R 35885, named one of her children Abraham. She may have been the daughter of the buyer. Another possibility is that the buyer was Abraham Willemsz. van der Voort, who married, first, Jannetje Hureau, and, second, Magdalena Stockmans (I ?). On 16 June 1618, Abraham's brother, Isaack Willemsz. (van der Voort), merchant, was betrothed to Magdalena Stockman Jansdr. (I), from Dordrecht (Oud Holland 2(1885), p. 37). Magdalena Stockmans I was said to be de geliefde van Bredero and her husband Isaack was called de bruine Brabander. Magdalena Stockmans I was, born in Dordrecht in 1598. Magdalena Stockmans I and Isaack van der Voort were portrayed by David Baudringhem shortly before 1630. (Isaack van der Voort died on 29 August 1629) (Oud Holland 7(1889), pp. 155-157). On 29 December 1631, Magdalena Stockmans I wrote a letter to her sister Elisabeth (married to the cloth seachant Jan Tayller) in which she discussed the various possibilities of renting a house in Amsterdam. She chose to rent the house on the Herengracht (probably no. 109), which was owned by Elisabeth van der Wel, the widow of Jan Pietersz. du Bien (of R 30035) (I. van Eeghen, De huizen van de zusters Stockmans, Maandblad Amstelodamum 58(1971), p. 58). On 18 December 1634, Magdalena Stockmans (I) dunned Francisco Boudewijns, merchant, (of R 20588) for the sum of 522 pounds Vl. 17 schellingen 6 groten which he owed her according to the accounts of his partnership with her late husband Isaack van der Voort, who had lived in Naples. They now reached an agreement on the main sum and on court costs pursuant to the arbitration of Jan Gerritsz. Hooft and Samuel Gilles (NA 694B, film 4980, omslag 64, Not. J. Warnaerts). On 9 October 1635, Magdalena Stockmans, widow of Isaack van der Voort, was cited (NA 695A, film 4981, also the depositions at the request of Magdalena Stockmans, widow of Isaack van der Voort, regarding the sale of linen in the same source, dated 21 and 26 July 1636). On 15 October 1666, Maria de Wit wrote a letter to Johan van der Voort, living near the Oude Heeren Logement, in which she mentioned that Rembrandt had offered 1000 gulden for a painting by Holbein. Maria de Witt, the sister of the pensioner Johan de Witt, was the daughter of Bella Stockmans. Johan van der Voort was the son of Magdalena Stockmans's marriage to Isaack van der Voort, who lived on O.Z. Voorburgwal no. 239 near the Sleutelbrug (Strauss, Rembrandt Documents, p. 562). One of the two individuals named Abraham van der Voort went bankrupt in 1621. His wife appealed to the magistrates to free him from being flogged because he was an old man (ibid.) He is unlikely to have been identical with Abraham Aertsz. van der Voort because the latter was only 47 years old at the time. He was probably Abraham Willemsz. van der Voort. In a letter dated 3 August 1590, Guillaume (Willem II) wrote to his brother Abraham from Naples complaining that his father had apprenticed his brother Isaack to a cooper (Maandblad Amstelodamum 41(1954), p. 139). Abraham could well have been in his 60s by 1621. | |
