Similar landscapes drawn with the brush are in the Rijksprentenkabinet (M. Schapelhouman and P. Schatborn, Land and Water, Dutch drawings from the 17th Century in the Rijksmuseum Print Room, Zwolle, 1987, pp. 56-7) and sold at Christie's, Amsterdam, 25 November 1992, lot 598, illustrated. All these drawings show the influence of Claude, to whom the present drawing was previously attributed, and on whom Swanevelt himself had been a formative influence in Rome
