About the piece
Painted by Gesina ter Borch around 1667, this endearing work depicts her brother Moses at age two. The child is presented with the dignity of a formal portrait, yet surrounded by the playthings of childhood—a drum, a hobby horse, and a violin—rendered with the meticulous detail and atmospheric depth characteristic of Dutch mastery.
