Dirck Jansz Pesser (c. 1585 - buried September 3, 1651) was a Dutch brewer from Rotterdam, best known today for his portrait by Rembrandt. He was an important member of the Rotterdam Remonstrant community in the early 17th century. He was the son of the brewer Jan Dammasz Pesser, who had founded the brewery "De Witte Leeuw" (''The White Lion'') at the end of the 16th century at the Leuvehaven in Rotterdam. On December 18, 1612 Dirck married Haesje Jacobs van Cleyburg. Dirck's older brother Dammas took over his father's brewery, and Dirk himself founded in 1619 the brewery "De Zwarte Leeuw" (''The Black Lion'', a lion was featured in the Pesser family's coat of arms) in four buildings on the Wijnstraat (''Wine Street'') near the Wijnhaven (''Wine Harbor''). Dirck and his wife Haesje van Cleyburg, who he had married in Brielle on 18 December 1612, posed for the famous Dutch artist Rembrandt Harmensz van Rijn 22 years later in 1634. The painting of Dirck is on display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.〔The piece was acquired by the Frances and Armand Hammer Purchase Fund〕 The pendant to this picture of Pesser's wife is in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. ==Rembrandt portrait== Hofstede de Groot documented Dirck's portrait as being tampered with by 1910, when he wrote: "739. A MAN IN A LARGE SLOUCH HAT, said to be a member of the Raman family. Half-length, without hands ; life size. He is turned to the right and looks at the spectator. He has a dark brown beard and moustache, a narrow pleated collar, and a black coat. (to 882. ) Signed to the right above the shoulder, "Rembrandt f. 1634"; oak panel, originally ten-sided with edges added later, 26 1/2 inches by 20 1/2 inches. In the possession of F. Kleinberger, Paris. In the collection of the late A. de Ridder, Frankfort-on-Main, 1910 catalogue, p. 35."〔(number 739 ) in Hofstede de Groot: A Man in a Large Slouch Hat〕 Despite the extra pieces being added on, he documented the woman (now called Haesje) as the pendant and wrote "882. A WOMAN IN A BROAD RUFF. Bode 260 ; Dut. 278 ; Wb. 207 ; B.-HdG. 119. About twenty-five. Half-length, without hands ; life size. She is turned to the left, and looks straight out of the picture.
