Lady with a Pet Dog
by SLINGELAND, Pieter Cornelisz. van, Oil on panel, 40 x 31 cm
Van Slingeland also executed pictures tinged with eroticism. Many of these reveal his responsiveness to the art of van Mieris: the Lady with a Pet Dog of 1672 was inspired by van Mieris’s Teasing the Pet (Mauritshuis, The Hague), painted twelve years earlier.
