Special notice
Christie's charges a Buyer's premium calculated at 20.825% of the hammer price for each lot with a value up to €90,000 (NLG 198.334). If the hammer price of a lot exceeds €90,000 then the hammer price of a lot is calculated at 20.825% of the first €90,000 plus 11.9% of any amount in excess of €90,000. Buyer's Premium is calculated on this basis for each lot individually.

Lot Essay

Little is known about the artist, who is recorded as a member of the Utrecht Guild from 1634 until 1636 and who was apprenticed with Cornelis van Poelenburgh. Typical of his style are the somewhat naive figures, reminiscent of Moses van Wuyttenbroeck, and the clearly defined shadows (see, for example, the signed picture sold at Christie's, London, 8 December 1995, lot 223, ill.).
