Later, when the painting was in the <a href="/wiki/Stanis%C5%82aw_August_Poniatowski" title="Stanisław August Poniatowski">Stanisław August</a> collection, it was referred to as the <i>Father of the Jewish Bride</i> or other such variations. These titles suggest a thematic connection between <i>The Scholar at the Lectern</i> and <i><a href="/wiki/The_Girl_in_a_Picture_Frame" title="The Girl in a Picture Frame">The Girl in a Picture Frame</a></i>. They also assume that the paintings were companion pieces, possibly because they were executed in the same year, are of the same size and use the same type of support. They were not in fact painted as a pair. Pairs of portraits painted by Rembrandt were always composed according to the following rule: the male portrait on the left, the female on the right, therefore contrary to the <a href="/wiki/Royal_Castle,_Warsaw" title="Royal Castle, Warsaw">Royal Castle</a> paintings.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In terms of composition, <i>The Scholar at the Lectern</i> and <i><a href="/wiki/The_Girl_in_a_Picture_Frame" title="The Girl in a Picture Frame">The Girl in a Picture Frame</a></i> do not share the same scheme: the scale of the figures and their setting differ. Had the paintings been intended as a pair, both of them would have been portrayed within a feigned frame, as was the case of other portraits.
