Focus on Johannes Verspronck: Portrait of a Seated Woman, ca. 1642-1645 (Inv. No. 703)

Following its restoration, Portrait of a Seated Woman by Johannes Verspronck will be presented to the public again for the first time in decades. Alongside his far better known colleague Frans Hals, Verspronck was one of the most sought after portraitists in Haarlem. The exhibition will shed light on the specific artistic circumstances of these two portraitists, their patrons, and their social context. Details of costume make it clear that such portraits served as status symbols. The process of creating the works will be revealed as well as the restoration of the painting and its provenance in one of the best known collections in Hanau during the age of Goethe.
Curator: Dr. Mirjam Neumeister
