Expert opinion
Dr. Klaus Ertz, Lingen, March 27, 2021.
The goddess Aurora in the red dress sees for the day, her sister, the goddess Luna, in the yellow robe with bared torso for the night.
Klaus Ertz dates the two small-format paintings towards the end of the 1620s. The full figures, oriented on Peter Paul Rubens, as well as the painterly conception of both the colorful robes and the cloud formations speak for the late period of origin.
