Bohler Series. Around 1914 a series of paintings was acquired from an Italian private collection by the Dutch art dealer Julius Bohler; together the paintings were known as the Bohler series after him, though he sold them separately to various museums and private collections. In 2016 Matthew reappeared in the private collection of one Mrs Generet, along with a Self-Portrait by Jacob Jordaens. Both paintings were then donated to the Koning Boudewijnstichting, which put Matthew on long-term loan to the Rubenshuis in Antwerp as the only painting from Van Dyck's apostles series now in Belgium.
