Actually I don't have any painting at home.... they take away everything from me, almost before it's finished... That Jewish scribe there, is sold to [Dutch art-seller] Buffa, and it isn't finished at all yet. And this 'Kolen lossen' is also sold... Then I have here 'The Mowers' - just set up... And that drawing here, will be a good piece too!.. That will become a large painting: a 'Jewish Wedding' - at the moment the groom puts the ring on the finger of his bride.... you can't see very much yet, do you?
