The portrait has been exhibited at the Fitzwilliam Museum as by Van Dyck, c. 1620 (on the opinions of J. S. Held and M. Jaffé), which is not possible as the last heart ring year of the third plank of the panel was found to be 1645. See the article by J. Vander Auwera in Issue 2 of the Jordaens Van Dyck Journal, attributing the portrait to Jordaens.
