Description: Pen and brown ink, brown wash, 163 x 293 mm. Discolouring from old mount along all four sides. Watermark: Letters PB. Chain lines: 24 mm.

PROVENANCE: Brought out and numbered in 1957. The drawing has been removed from a blue mount, still partly in place on the verso, identical to that of the following drawing, acquired in 1865. This is not the Sparre mount typical of the Tessin collection (cf. Introduction). The 35 drawings acquired in 1865 were only catalogued in 1899, but from the descriptions it is clear that the present drawing was not among them.

Attributed by Bjurström in 1967, based on comparisons with drawings in Amsterdam, London and Florence. Only the first of these is included in Sumowski’s catalogue of Borssom’s drawings. [Magnusson, Dutch Drawings no. 84]
