- Attribution today
- Becker cautiously catalogued the drawing as by a follower of Philips Koninck (“Koningh, Philip, Nachfolger des”), rather than by Koninck himself. No modern attribution securely connected to this exact drawing was located. Authenticated Koninck drawings share its characteristic low horizon, expansive sky and panoramic treatment of the Dutch countryside.
