Provenance

Collection(s)

private collection Cornelis Willem van Valkenburg, Haarlem
Valkenburg is mentioned on a drawing after the painted portrait (RKD images no. 131956). The painting came into the possession of the Van Valkenburg family by descent, through the daughter of Olycan, Geertruyt (1603-1666). After her death the painting and its pendant were inherited by Geertruyt’s nephew Nicolaes Olycan (1636–1689) and his sister Maria Olycan (1634–1696) and then by C.W. Valkenburgh (1818–1857) (Tummers 2013, p. 138).
