Note du spécialiste

We are grateful to Mrs Hanako Kawanchi of the University of Osaka for pointing out similarities with the Wintzler family portrait by Gotthardt de Wedig in the Wallraf-Richartz-Museum, Cologne. She believes the artist must have been familiar with the oeuvre of Gortzius Geldorp, and was influenced by portrait painters from Cologne of a generation later.
