. This oil on canvas print, titled "Portrait of a Family, 1656" offers us an intimate glimpse into the lives of a wealthy Dutch family during the illustrious Golden Age. Painted by Gerard ter Borch or Borch, this masterpiece measures 78x86.5 cm and is housed in the prestigious Hallwyl Museum in Stockholm, Sweden.
