The subjects were clearly chosen for their saleability and dwell strongly on sentimentality of a bygone era. Subjects include naked ladies in shells, by pools, in waterfalls or wearing diaphanous clinging and revealing outfits, even the lady atop a mountain decked out in her climbing gear leaves nothing to the imagination. Other figures of children and reworked head and shoulder busts based on renaissance models are less revealing. The skill involved in their production was evidently high and were doubtless bought and sold as 'high art' in that age before Freudian analysis.

Idsinga's collection was particularly strong in contemporary drawings and prints, including lithographs, and sale included a fine mahogany collector's cabinet. The books, prints and paintings together give a good illustration of the Dutch taste of the first half of the 19th century.
