About this work

Petronella Dunois meticulously assembled the dolls' house displayed here at the right. She commissioned various craftsmen to create each component. When she wed Pieter Groenendijk, her dolls' house was one of the most valuable possessions she brought into the marriage, alongside customary assets such as securities and an impressive amount of linen.
