Ary Scheffer has two large historical can-vases, which require appropriate legends to arouseinterest. L. Apol, Bosboom, and Hubert van Hoveare also represented. Room F contains characteris-tic works by Mesdag, Blommers, Mauve, Israels,Neuhuys, J. Maris, and others.

In Gouda, for instance, we find a triptych byDirk Barents, his only sacred work extant, and amilitia group by Cornelis Ketel, the early grouppainter. We find there also a rare example byAnthonie Blockland, The Beheading of , a work of art of great interest. Thisartist depic
