Note du spécialiste

This early work, which still bears the strong influence of Hans Bol, Savery's master, can be compared to two others in bodycolor on vellum executed circa 1584-6: the Landscape with the story of Jephthah's daughter in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam (inv. A2117) and the Landscape with a city by the sea in the Gemäldegalerie, Dresden (H.G. Franz, Niederländische Landschaftsmalerei im Zeitalter des Manierismus, Graz, 1969, I, p. 295, II, figs. 467-68).
