This newly discovered drawing is part of a small group of similar landscape drawings in black chalk by the little-known artist Koene, whose hand has been identified on the basis of his signature on a drawing in the Rijksprentenkabinet, Amsterdam. Other drawings from this group are in the Musée des Beaux-Arts, Brussels; the Kunsthalle, Hamburg and in private collections, J. Giltay, Tekeningen van Isaac Koene (1637/40-1713), Bulletin van het Rijksmuseum, XXVII, 1979, 3, pp. 129-133. Two further drawings are in the Musée des Beaux-Arts et d'Archéologie, Besançon, (inv. nos. D786-7, as Jan van Goyen), Gernsheim nos. 21714 and 21724.
In the third volume of his Groote Schouwburgh of 1721, Arnold Houbraken described Koene as a pupil of Jacob van Ruisdael. The latter's influence is clear from the subject and handling, while the few known pictures by Koene are very close to the work of Meindert Hobbema. Yet none of Koene's drawings seems to be related to his pictures.
