Description: Pen and brown ink, watercolour, 140 x 240 mm. Ruled framing lines in brown ink. All four corners repaired. Some foxing at the lower left. No watermark.

This view is drawn with a very fine pen, while the colours are applied broadly and rather carelessly. While the water in the foreground is light blue, its continuation to the right of the bridge is washed brown, making reading more difficult. There are other details like that, and the darker green tones on the left are applied in a particularly clumsy way. Most likely the colours are a later addition.

Gerson, in 1935, ascribed this drawing to Koninck. That attribution is dismissed by Sumowski with reference to some landscape drawings in an admittedly different manner, while others could be found that tend to support it. The present sheet could be compared with a river landscape in Haarlem, not known to Sumowski. It is probably by the same hand as a drawing in the De Grez Collection in Brussels, attributed to De With by Sumowski. [Magnusson, Dutch Drawings no. 493]
