Physical connection Reference in ‘composite artworks’: artworks that are/were connected, such as alterpieces, decorative pieces incorporated in panelling, and works of art that were intended to be displayed together, such as pendants and series.

pendant (companion piece)

attributed to Rembrandt, Portret van Jean Pellicorne (1597-na 1653) en zijn zoon Casper Pellicorne (1628-1680) (pendant (companion piece))

Support/medium

canvas, oil paint

Shape/dimensions

rectangle (portrait format) 155.3 x 122.5 cm
according to the RRP the canvas of this painting was probably originally a bit larger, at least on the right hand side (Corpus of Rembrandt Paintings 1982-2015, vol. 2 (1986), no. C 66)

Signature/inscription Information about the signature, dating, inscription or any other mark on the front or back of the art work

with signature and date lower right: Rembrant.f.16
According to the RRP the writing and location of the signature differ from Rembrandt's general manner. The spelling of the name without the 'd' occurs in some authentic paintings between of 1633 and 1634 (Corpus of Rembrandt Paintings 1982-2015, vol. 2 (1986), no. C 65 and no. C 66). According to Van de Wetering this signature was probably copied after the one on the companion piece (Corpus of Rembrandt Paintings 1982-2015, vol. 6 (2015), no. 77b).
inscription on the back: inscription found on back of original canvas/Suzanna van Collen vrouw van Jan Pellicorne
Ingamells 1985-1992, vol. 4 (1992), p. 294

Current attribution: attributed to Rembrandt
: and studio of Rembrandt
: or studio of Rembrandt
This painting was always regarded as an authentic Rembrandt until doubted by Tümpel and the RRP in 1986. They attributed this painting to Rembrandt's studio (Tümpel 1986, no. A 119; Corpus of Rembrandt Paintings 1982-2015, vol. 2 (1986), no. C 66). In 2004 it was suggested that this painting was made by Rembrandt with the help of a pupil (Hedley/Duffy 2004, p. 349). This attribution has since then been generally accepted, although there is no consensus of opinion on the extent of the studio assistance (Brown 2006A, p. 58-60; Corpus of Rembrandt Paintings 1982-2015, vol. 6 (2015), no. 77b).

Date Exact or approximate dating of the described art work; the search parameters adopted for this art work in this database, are found in brackets.: c. 1633 (1632 - 1634)

Largely based on the ages of the child on this portrait, it is generally dated around 1633 (see for instance: Corpus of Rembrandt Paintings 1982-2015, vol. 2 (1986), no. C 66; Ingamells 1985-1992, vol. 4 (1992), p. 292).

according to an annotation in a copy of the sale catalogue (RKD, The Hague) , Lugt no. 19978: "Portrait de Madame Pellicorne et sa fille. Si le tableau précédent excelle par ses qualités supérieures, celui-ci, son pendant, lui est au moins égal. Il représente la femme de Jean Pellicorne, également assise dans un fauteuil; d’une main elle tien tune bourse en soie verte et de l’autre elle offre une piève d’argent à sa fille, charmante jeune personne a regard naïf, placée auprès de sa mère. La dame est vêtue d’une robe de soie noire, don’t le corsage est orné d’une broderie en or, sur la tête elle porte un petit bonnet en dentelle et autour du cou une large fraise blanche. La robe de la jeune fille est d’une belle étoffe à fleurs. Ce portrait réunit les hautes et superbes qualités du precedent. Ces deux chefs-d’oeuvre proviennent de la succession de feu Mr. Valckenier van de Poll, à Amsterdam."
