Item Overview

A portrait of the artist in his studio
signed and dated 'HVB 1794' (center right)

Artist or Maker

Literature

J.Q. van Regteren Altena, 'Herman van Brussel als Figuurschilder', Nederlands Kunsthistorisch Jaarboek, XXI, 1970, p. 309, fig. 3.

Notes

Van Regteren Altena believes that the artist is F.A. Milatz (1763-1808); however, Milatz would have been only 31 years old at the time the present portrait was painted, which may not seem compatible with the age of the sitter.
