Getting started with the collection:
Johannes Wtenbogaert
Willem Jacobsz. Delff (mentioned on object), 1619
Wtenbogaert strove for religious tolerance. He was greatly admired and therefore often portrayed. In 1619, the year in which the Remonstrants were expelled, the printmaker Delff published a portrait of Wtenbogaert, based on a painting from 1612. Thirteen years later, by which time the clergyman was 75 years old and living in Holland again, Delff made another portrait of him, now after a painting by Van Miereveld.
