NOTE
We are grateful to Fred Meijer of the Rijksbureau voor Kunsthistorische Domentatie, The Hague for endorsing the attribution, based on photographs. This portrait is dateable to the 1690s and is similar to one offered at Sotheby's, New York, May 21, 1998, lot 93, and to Weenix's portraits of the Schey family from 1693 (Akademie, Vienna).
