Jan Sluijters (Den Bosch 1881 - Amsterdam 1957) Portrait...

Jan Sluijters (Den Bosch 1881 - Amsterdam 1957) Portrait of an elegant lady with her dog (c. 1927) Signed lower left Mixed media on paper, 24.9 x 21 cm Provenance: - Kunsthandel Wim de Boer, Alkmaar - Private collection, the Netherlands Note: Registered at the RKD - Netherlands Institute for Art History in The Hague under number 106500. The portrayed is most likely Mrs Claire Marie van der Vuurst de Vries-Dreher (1873-1941), who was depicted by Sluijters several times, even on a grand scale. Her husband, dr. Hendrik van der Vuurst de Vries (1875-1962), was also portrayed by Sluijters, but never as elaborately as the portrait present. Therefore, Sluijters, known to be a true ladies-man, might indeed have preferred painting the elegant Claire Marie.
