Portrait of Paulus Joseph Gabriël
Woutherus Mol (mentioned on object), c. 1818
Thanks to a royal subsidy from Louis Napoleon, the painter Woutherus Mol and the sculptor Paulus Joseph Gabriël were together in Rome around 1810. Mol painted this portrait of his friend after they had returned to Amsterdam. In the background is a sculpted male head of the type produced by Gabriël (see the portrait heads of Cornelis Apostool and Johanna Ziesenis in this gallery).
