About the piece

This intricate heraldic painting from 1684 commemorates the union of Jacobus Loohoff and Johanna Pierraert. The central composition features their respective family shields—one with a checkered pattern and tree, the other with crossed swords—surrounded by elaborate golden mantling and a knight's helmet. At the base, a circular medallion with clasped hands is flanked by two winged putti, creating a stately piece of Dutch heritage art.
