Commentary	On Willem Hendricx, dyer, who was also a buyer at auction, see the NOTES to R 29847 of Montias2. Rumors of his bankruptcy were spread from 15 February 1634 on (or earlier). Note that the paintings were inventorized without evaluations on 17 February. Then, on 15 April, Dirck Pietersz. Bontepaert (alias Santvoort) and Nicolaes Elias (Picquenoy) added in the left-hand margin their estimates of each work of art and, in some cases, their attribution. On Samuel Cooren, who made an inventory of the merchandise in the inventory, see INVNO 645. The presence of a portrait of Pater Ney in the inventory makes it very probable that Willem Hendricx was Roman Catholic
