A Family of Painters
Frans Hals was not the only painter of the Hals family. Two brothers, Joost and Dirck, were also painters. Hals’ five sons and his grandson Pieter van Roestraeten painted as well, just like the son of his brother Dirck: Anthonie.
A presenation in the foyer of the Frans Hals Museum gave a small impression of a big painting family.
