拍品专文

In his book from 1938 on Salomon van Ruysdael's paintings, Stechow noted that he did not know any drawings that could be given to the artist without any doubts and compared the present drawing to Ruysdael's paintings from around 1630 (Stechow, op. cit., 1938, p. 60). However, Peter Schatborn feels that the attribution is not sustainable and has suggested the name of Camphuysen, another elusive draughtsman, as the author of this drawing on the basis of the compositional relationship with a signed painting by that artist (R.H. Ward; Frederik Muller et Cie, Amsterdam, 15 May 1934, lot 110).
