Anotations

Scope note:

A regentenstuk (Dutch, literally "regents piece") is a type of group portrait that was popular in the Dutch Republic during the 17th and 18th centuries. These depicted the board of regents of a charitable organization or guild, depicted as an ensemble, most often meant to be publicly displayed in boardrooms or guildhalls. Early versions of these included iconography related to the function of organization represented, though later examples often lack these elements.
