The coat-of-arms of the families Schade van Westrum and Verhel van Bylant, surrounded by the coats of arms of their ancestors: Animans, van Heese, van der Beeck, Coddenoort, Schaes, Pyll, van Nes, Louwe, De Wijs, De Lange, Weeder, De Beer and Bylant

E.B.F.F. Wittert van Hoogland, Het geslacht Wittert, I, 1914, p.617, lists the marriage of Dirck Schade (1554-1615) and Geertruyd Verhel van Bylant (+1611) on 29 September 1581. The present lot was made probably to record this marriage. We are grateful to E.J. Wolleswinkel from the Iconografisch Bureau for his help in cataloguing this lot.
