Both Louis Nicholas van Blarenberghe (1717-1794) and his son, Henri Joseph (1741-1826) signed their work without initials. Both were working at this time. It is believed, however, that these miniatures are most likely the son's work.
Please note that one miniature is dated 1778 and the other is dated 1779.
