Attributed to Simon Pietersz. Verelst (Dutch, 1644-1721) Portrait of Miss Mary Rolt of Milton Ernest, Bedfordshire (b.1667), pouring Water from an Urn, inscribed lower right "Mary Rolt", oil on canvas, 136 x 104cm (53.04 x 40.56in). Provenance: Hinwick House, Bedfordshire, thence by descent. Exhibited: The City Museum and Art Gallery, Birmingham, Jubilee Commemorative Exhibition, 1934, lent by the late Colonel Orlebar (old label to the reverse). Literature: Frederica St John Orlebar, The Orlebar Chronicles in Bedfordshire and Northamptonshire 1553-1733, Vol.1, pub. Mitchell Hughes and Clarke, London, 1930, p.284. " ...Mary, the future Mrs Stevens, was born in 1667, three years after her parents` marriage and that the other children were Jane, Catherine and Samuel. We have Mary`s picture, brought to Hinwick, in all probability some years later, when the Rolts were ruined, and their property dispersed. It represents a most lovely girl, but of what age it is difficult to say. Little Samuel is almost equally pretty. There is such a sweet look of innocence and refinement in young Mary`s face". Miss Mary Rolt of Bassetts, Milton Ernest, Bedfordshire, married a Mr Stevens of Epsom. Sadly they had no children of their own but Mrs Stevens was the much-loved aunt of Mrs John Orlebar (nee Mary Rolt) and a regular visitor to Hinwick. Simon Pietersz. Verelst was originally known for his work as a flower painter in The Hague; he came to England in 1669 and became known as a portrait painter. His chief patrons were Nell Gwyn, mistress of the King, and the Duke of Buckingham. The present painting appears to be a Vanitas - the cup spilling water signifying emptiness and the passing of time
