Inscriptions

Inscription: Recto: lower left corner, on added piece of paper, brown ink: "J. Quinkhard, Pinx."; lower right corner, on added piece of paper, brown ink, signed by the artist: "P. Wagenaar del..". Verso: lower centre, graphite: "Wagemar [sic] delt. / Portrait of J.M.Q. (With portrait of his son Julius on the easel) / 1070".
