THOMAS DE KEYSER. Portrait of a Woman with a Balance

Portrait of a Woman with a Balance. Artist: Thomas de Keyser (Dutch, Amsterdam (?) 1596/97-1667 Amsterdam). Dimensions: 9 1/8 x 6 7/8 in. (23.2 x 17.5 cm). Date: ca. 1625-26.
The man is a shell collector, in an age when foreign trade opened up a wide world of natural curiosities. His wife holds a balance, symbolizing the virtue of temperance. De Keyser was one of the leading portraitists in Amsterdam during the 1620s and 1630s. He is best known for small full-length portraits, but he also painted large group portraits and small bust- and half-length portraits.
