She was a woman in the history of amsterdam ,the capitol of holland, it was asumed that the painting was by Rembrand but in retrospect from his student ferdinant Bol, olso a painter in amsterdam , elisabeth was a patron  of the arts she supported  the artist whit food and lodgings in the Inn  from her husband, his last name translated was "BLACK DOG " ,and no john she was not famely. a woman from a other century  that looks good on a cigar Tin , to emulate  dignety ,sophistication, and the capitols love for the Arts. My grand Grand mother did look a bit like her but only cose of the Headweare from that peticular period.

Cool box. I don't know who Elizabeth is or was, but she might scare off mice and vermin. Oh, I hope she's not your momma, Andries.
