Johanna le Gillon, Wife of Hieronymus van Beverningk

The portraits of Johanna le Gillon and her husband are still in their original frames. These are carved in limewood, with gilt high relief, and entirely symmetrical to each other. In the corners are pairs of putti gathering roses. The stiles and rails are ornamented with vines, festoons and scrolls of oak, laurel and acanthus.The motto in the cartouche at bottom translates as: ‘A contented heart is a great good.’
