To commemorate the thorough restoration of Rembrandt's masterpieces Marten & Oopjen, the Rijksmuseum has released a unique Playmobil set. The set features two miniature figures: Marten Soolmans and Oopjen Coppit, complete with a fan.

Marten & Oopjen: Nearly 400 Years Together
Marten Soolmans, son of a wealthy Flemish immigrant with a sugar refinery in Amsterdam, confidently posed for Rembrandt in 1634. With his striking costume, including expensive lace and large rosettes on his shoes, he later earned the reputation of a dandy. His wife, Oopjen Coppit, hailed from an influential Amsterdam family; her grandfather amassed wealth through grain and gunpowder trade. Despite her less modern attire, Oopjen displayed her prosperity with her black silk dress and jewelry.
