- Curator's comments
- The painting, a pair to a portrait of 'Mrs Vrijdags van Vollenhoven' (also reproduced by Waltner, see 1877,0210.430) was formerly in the Prince Paul Galitzin Collection, and the sale catalogue indicates that Waltner reproduced both paintings for 'L'Art' in 1875.
The identification as Vrijdags van Vollenhoven is now considered doubtful.
The Musée de Lille keeps two portraits by Ravesteyn, also formerly identified as Mr and Mrs Vrijdags van Vollenhoven (P 206 and P 216), but they are different from the paintings reproduced by Waltner.
