English: This version is one of a large number of paintings with the same depiction of the subject, NONE of them is an authentic Marinus van Reymerswale. They are often characterised by a parrot or scissors behind the writing man and jewelry on the table. They often bear dates which are later than the probable year of Marinus' death (1546), or they carry French inscriptions or these inscriptions deal with subjects which Marinus never used on one of his original versions of Ywo Tax Collectors, the title which has been most commonly used for these paintings (cf. the versions in the Louvre Museum and in the National Gallery of London). The present version may have found its origin in the authentic painting which is in the Narodny Muzeum in Warsaw.
