This and the following two drawings have old attributions to Swanevelt, but are clearly not by him. They resemble more closely Italian draughtsmen such as G. Parigi (? – 1635). However, there are similarities to drawings of Roman ruins perhaps by Cornelis Vroom, in Leiden  and in the Hermitage. [Magnusson, Dutch Drawings no. 586]
