About the piece

Painted in 1620 by Cornelis van der Voort, this Dutch Golden Age portrait captures a family in formal black attire. The meticulous detail in the large millstone ruffs and the delicate lace of the child's apron reflects the prestige and craftsmanship of the era, while the dark background emphasizes the luminous skin tones and intricate textures.
