(en) Portrait of the Artist’s Wife Anna du Pire as Granida - Bartholomeus van der Helst. Národní galerie v Praze. Gearchiveerd op 18 april 2021. Geraadpleegd op 17 april 2021. “Portrait of the Artist’s Wife Anna du Pire as Granida - Bartholomeus van der Helst - The artist portrayed his wife as the Persian Princess Granida and himself in the pendant painting as the shepherd Daiphilus. Those were the lovers in the popular pastoral play of the time, Granida (1605) by Pieter Cornelisz. Hooft. The lady in the painting is carrying a bow and arrows over her shoulder, yet her seductive costume does not impress as a hunter´s attire. The erotic accent is more than obvious. Bartholomeus van der Helst was a very successful portraitist and competed with Rembrandt in Amsterdam.”

The play deals with the love between the two figures, who despite differences in class are finally allowed to marry - an ideal theme for the depiction of a married couple who knows they are united by the power of love. As a self portrait of the artist it simultaneously alludes to the topos that love is supposed to inspire art.”
