Portrait of Maria van Strijp. Verspronck painted not only Maria van Strijp and her husband, but also her mother and her brother-in-law. He usually portrayed his patrons standing. In this case, however, Maria sits sideways on a chair with its backto the viewer. He borrowed this playful device from portraits by Frans Hals.
