About this work
W.J. Ploy (attributed), 1663. Elisabeth van Oosten (1660 - 1714), half-sister of Johannes van Rees, as a child. Oil on canvas. This portrait is traditionally assumed to show a member of the Van Riebeeck family. Jan van Riebeeck (1619 - 1677) arrived at Cape of Good Hope in 1652 and established a supply base for VOC ships sailing to Batavia (Jakarta). The actual identity of the subject is not certain.
