Double Portrait of Betje Wolff and Agatha Deken

For the fans! Followers of the writing duo will have bought this print. You see two very different characters. Wolff was considered charming and high-spirited, Deken thoughtful and modest. Wolff grew up in a well-to-do milieu in Vlissingen, Deken in an Amsterdam orphanage. They complement each other. As their friend Jacobus Bellamy said: 'Bekker (Wolff) is the vinegar, Deken the oil. Together they make a good sauce.' This print served as the model for the engravings on both glasses.
