Description: | This painting was at one time recorded as being a portrait of Herman Boerhaave but it does not bear any resemblance to other known portraits of him. The sitter is dressed in robes with a landscape view in the distance. An artist's name inscribed on the reverse indicate that the painting has been attributed to Pieter van der Werff, a Dutch painter. He and his brother Adriaen are both known to have painted portraits at the beginning of the eighteenth century. | Subjects: | figure; landscape; interior; portrait (Herman Boerhaave?) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Unknown Æ Previously attributed to Werff, Pieter van der (Dutch painter, 1665-1722) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8326... | Go to resource |
