The painting, which dates to 1732-1771, depicts Hendrik van der Zande, a jurist and dramatic poet who lived in Amsterdam. The miniature’s small size, measuring 11.2 cm in height and 9.3 cm in width, was common for personal keepsakes during the 18th century. The ornate gold frame with a laurel wreath motif adds to the work’s sense of formality.
