Item Description:This essay reconsiders Jan Lievens's "Mars and Venus" as a commission by the new Electress of Brandenburg, Louise Henriette of Orange-Nassau (1627–1667), and frames it within the collecting taste established by her parents at the court in The Hague. This contextualization reconciles the painting's identification as allegory, history and "portrait historié", and illuminates Lievens's visual sources
