As usual, seen on THAT site :(   (link on THAT site)

Not sure of the name of the painting (not my thing  :-[ )..

And the mandatory question... will someone handle a group purchase? The klickys are gorgeous! :love:

Checked the Rijksmuseum-site; but it isn't available (yet).
Does anyone know the release date?

Easy and cheap would be to wait for the set to be available at www.playmobil.nl, just like the other Rijksmuseum exclusives. I can have them delivered to a dutch mailing address and then ship them (quite cheaply ;) - different from NL) from Germany. It might all take a while, but I'm happy to take this on me.

Best wishes

Not sure of the name of the painting.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendant_portraits_of_Maerten_Soolmans_and_Oopjen_Coppit

It is actually two paintings, portraits of a couple. They were recently purchased jointly by the Rijksmuseum and the Louvre.

Not sure how much I like them, though. Too black and protestant for my taste.

Best wishes

I like the PM versions. In the original, why is Mr. Soolmans wearing a shuttlecock on each knee and a cake doily on each foot?
At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)
