WERFF, Adriaen van der

(b. 1659, Kralingen, d. 1722, Rotterdam)

Children Playing before a Hercules Group 1687 Oil on panel, 46,8 x 35 cm Alte Pinakothek, Munich

According to an early biography, van der Werff relished "representing satin garments after the modern manner (like that of Ter Borch)." The silk clothes indeed evoke Ter Borch's astounding mastery of satin.
