  • Shaun Lavelle asked

    Hi, I have this painting also?! Can I send you pictures? Could he have painted two versions?

  • Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen answered

    Dear Shaun, in theory it is possible that Jan de Braij painted two versions of the portrait. More likely, however, is that you own a reproduction of the work. Please check the materials - or have them checked by an expert (dealer or auction house). Kind regards, Els
