About the piece
Painted around 1650, this grand group portrait by Johannes Mytens depicts the family of Willem van der Does and Wilhelmina van den Honert. The figures are arranged with theatrical grace in a pastoral setting, expertly blending formal portraiture with a naturally beautiful backdrop of a wooded glade and a glowing, expansive sky.
