Portrait of Theodorus Bisdom van Vliet and his Family

1757

For generations the Bisdom van Vliet family held important positions in and around Haastrecht. Theodorus was mayor of the town and an official of the Krimpenerwaard district water board. He and his wife Maria are in their garden, surrounded by their ten elegantly dressed children. The arms of both parents feature on the sides of the Rococo frame.
