  • K Chapman asked

    Which building was this series made for originally? I am certain that these pieces have come from a room, perhaps in Amsterdam

  • Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen answered

    Dear Kendall, You are absolutely right that this piece was made to decorate a room, possibly in Amsterdam and probably above a chimney or a door. Unfortunately it is not know for what specific room or house the decoration was made. With kind regards, Els
