2/2 Two more beauties from the 1660s (one of them armed!) by Jan Mytens.

Though I myself probably won't be doing the pitch event this time (I've been having A Month, goodness gracious) I do love them, especially the hype/networking events, because I've gotten to find all sorts of cool people through them!

There is someone who doesn't believe in The Power Of Love™️, but wants to.
