About the piece
Painted around 1683 by Willem Wissing, this exquisite double portrait depicts Henrietta and Mary Hyde. The sisters are shown in high-fashion Baroque attire, their satin gowns rendered with masterly attention to light and texture. The inclusion of a white dove and surrounding flowers adds a touch of allegorical innocence to the stately, aristocratic composition characteristic of the period.
