Rembrandt-painted portraits of Jan Willemsz van der Pluym and his wife, Jaapgen, are once again visible to the public after nearly 200 years in a private collection.
The paintings, believed to be the last known pair of privately held Rembrandt portraits, were sold at auction this year and given on long-term loan by the family of wealthy Dutch businessman Henry Holterman, the museum said.
"Given my close relationship with the museum and the fact that the team of experts has been conducting research into these portraits over a period of years, I feel that these works belong in the museum," Holterman said in a statement.
