Rénialme

de Rénialme (also spelled de Renialme) was a prominent noble Belgian and Venetian family originally from Antwerp in modern Belgium. Several family members were wealthy merchants in Antwerp and Venice during the 16th century and later.[1][2]

The family includes the noted art dealer Johannes de Renialme, a principal dealer of Rembrandt's paintings and who also bought the first known painting by Vermeer.[3]
