The present bust is comparable to the work of Artus Quellinus the Elder and his pupil Rombout Verhulst (1624-1698) when they were working in Amsterdam from the middle of the century onwards. Similarities can be seen in the lively and realistic depiction of Dr Nicolaus Tulp by Quellinus (1654-6; Dusseldorf, loc. cit.) and in a number of busts by Verhulst now in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam (Leeuwenberg, loc. cit.). The sitter also shares some charateristics, such as the narrow face, thin moustache, pulled back hair and flowing locks, with a terracotta bust of a gentleman in the Centraal Museum in Utrecht that is possibly of Quellinus himself (Brussels, loc. cit.).
