Getting started with the collection:
Portrait of Dirck Volckertsz Coornhert
Hendrick Goltzius (mentioned on object), 1591 - 1592
The skin-like surround (cartouche) of the inscription below the portrait has auricular forms along its lower edge. This was probably their earliest appearance in the Netherlands. Adam and Paulus van Vianen, the silversmiths from Utrecht, knew Goltzius well.
