| Buyer Notes | The buyer, Hendrick Sticke, the son of a Deventer burgermeester, was Generael van de Convoyen ende licentien. He was married to Christina Hoefijser. In 1620 he was arrested for financing and organizing a counterfeiting enterprise (in which he employed Balthasar Claes Gerritsz., the grandfather of Johannes Vermeer). He was beheaded in 1621. Siewert Meynertsz. apparently acted as surety for Sticke in the auction. On this borg, see R 21630. On 11 February 1647, the inventory of Christina Hoofijser, widow of Hendrick Sticke, was taken at the request of Johan Sticke, burgomaster of Deventer and Adriaen Sticke, living in Beskes. Johan and Adriaen Sticke, the brothers of Hendrick Sticke, were said to be the uncles and closest relatives of the children of Hendrick Sticke and Christina Hoefijser (NA 1914, Not. F.
