"Group Portrait" (see main
detail) by
Pieter Verneulen Cornelisde Haan - Hals Museum, Haarlem, The Netherlands (see
more details - | A | B |
C | D |
E |).
Note a strong facial, particularly nasal, resemblance of those portrayed, who
have different "family" names, thus presumably different fathers and mothers. A
biologic explanation may be that they are illegitimate half paternal [non
maternity is rare] brothers or are otherwise related. An alternative is that the
painter was inaccurate.
