"Maey Veeghde-pot" and "Pannetje Vet"
Johannes and Lucas van Doetechum after Pieter Bruegel the Elder
The image shows two head-and-shoulders portraits of individuals facing forward, each enclosed within an oval frame. On the left is an older woman with pronounced facial lines, a long nose, and deep-set eyes. Her hair is mostly concealed beneath a hood that flows around her face and neck. She is wearing a cloak with visible texture over her shoulders. On the right is an older man with distinct cheekbones, a strong jawline, and a direct gaze. He has short, wavy hair partially covered by a round, textured cap. His clothing consists of a cloak that drapes over his shoulders. The background consists of parallel horizontal lines that fill the area outside the oval frames, and there is a vertical line dividing the two portraits.
