About this work

This 1751 print by Aert Schouman, engraved by Jacob Houbraken, shows two oval-framed portrait busts of Willem van Mieris and Frans van Mieris set over a table with a book, quill, inkwell, and palette. A sketch of a figure hangs on the right, and a caption at the bottom names the two sitters. The composition is an engraved architectural tableau typical of printed artist biographies.
