About the piece
Painted in 1863 by Bernardus Gerardus ten Berge, this oil on panel depicts Johannes Douwes with a gentle, contemplative expression. The composition is enriched by the presence of the Alkmaar Waagtoren in the distance, providing a charming architectural anchor to this classic European portrait.
