Note du spécialiste

We are grateful to Dr. Birgit Schumacher for confirming the attribution to Philips Wouwerman, after inspection of the original painting (verbal communication 30 July 2015). Dr. Schumacher dates the present work to 1645-47. The use of specific pigments, the facial types, the rendering of the landscape and folliage, the clair-obscure and the notable development towards a detailed depiction, all point to an execution date within these years.
