Specialist note

A study for the painting from circa 1760 depicting the van den Broek family, which is in a private collection (te Rijdt, op. cit., fig. 10) (Fig. 1). Although Regters followed the preparatory drawing quite closely in the painting, he did make some adjustments; for instance, he added a portrait of Cornelis van den Broek's father on the wall above the assembled family. Furthermore the background is darkened in the painting, bringing the sitters into greater focus.
