Jan de Bisschop
Jan de Bisschop belongs to the Dutch Golden Age circle of draughtsmen and printmakers, and the sheets here are built on black chalk drawings finished with brush and brown wash, sometimes reinforced with pen and brown ink. The two works in this collection, including a double portrait and a composition of the three virtues after Raphael, date to the mid-1660s and show how closely he studied earlier Italian models. Together they represent his preferred mediums of wash and ink over chalk, with impressions up to 1665.
