A portrait of a woman in the collection of the Chrysler Museum in Norfolk VA was attributed to the Hoorn portraitist Abraham Liedts in 2003. It can now be recognized as the portrait of Immetje (Emerentia) Groot (1619-1683), on the basis of the coat of arms and the age of the sitter. She was the third wife of vice-admiral Pieter Florisz. (1600/1610-1658), who died in the battle of the Sont. Immetje s portrait may have been painted on the occasion of their marriage. A contemporary copy of the portrait of Immetje Groot is in the Westfries Museum, Hoorn. Little is known about the life of Liedts, who was born in 1604/1605 (he was 63 in 1668) and who spent several years in England, from 1628 or later. By 19 December 1646 he was back in Hoorn, where he married in 1661 and died in December 1668. His earliest known (attributed) portrait dates from 1651 and his last known dated work, a portrait of Cornells Bakker as a boy, is from 1667. It would appear that several of his sitters were also members of the Groot family. At present, only a small oeuvre by Liedts can be recognized. His teacher is unrecorded, but it may be that he was trained by Jacques Waben (c.1580-c.1641) or by IJsbrant Deijer, who died in 1659.
