Brief aan Pieter Verloren van Themaat Possibly 1861

Johannes Pieter van Wisselingh’s “Brief aan Pieter Verloren van Themaat” (Possibly 1861) is a letter of correspondence detailing the artist's pricing for various paintings. The letter is addressed to Pieter Verloren van Themaat, likely a collector of Van Wisselingh's work. The document lists different subject matter for his paintings, including a "Leersum qu Whenen" which is a reference to the town of Leersum and a "Vollanosch landschap" which could be a reference to a Dutch landscape. The letter is significant because it provides insight into the artist's working methods and the art market of the 19th century.
