- Abstract
Two pairs of paintings by Johannes Vermeer are designated as pendants by Walter Liedtke in his catalog of Vermeer's paintings. The canvases of one of these pairs have previously been shown to be from the same bolt, which is frequently an attribute of a pendant pair in seventeenth-century Dutch paintings. This paper provides evidence, in the form of a new weave match, that the second pendant pair identified by Walter Liedtke also exhibits this bolt-matestatus.
