Johanna Christina Beelenkamp (1820-90). Wife of Cornelis Outshoorn 1850 - 1870

This oil painting by Moritz Calisch depicts Johanna Christina Beelenkamp, the wife of Cornelis Outshoorn, in a traditional portrait style. Created between 1850 and 1870, the artwork showcases Beelenkamp in a formal pose, dressed in a black gown with lace detailing, her hand resting on the back of a chair. Calisch's attention to detail in her attire and the subtle smile on Beelenkamp's face contribute to the portrait's realism and sense of elegance, making it a fine example of 19th-century Dutch portraiture. The painting is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
