About this work
Schalkius van Beeftingh founded a sugar refinery in Rotterdam in the early 18th century, which remained in the family until 1841. The Van Beeftingh van der Dussen family, with its combination of surnames, played an important role in Rotterdam's city council and were important art collectors. Their marks are found on some syrup pots excavated in that city in 2021.
