Prince Wladimir Nikolaevich Argoutinsky-Dolgoroukoff (1874-1941) (L. 2602d); from whom purchased by I.Q. van Regteren Altena on 15 November 1928 for 50 guilders (Inventory book: '571. t. A. Bloemaert boomstam').

專家說明

The present drawing was traditionally regarded as a work by Abraham Bloemaert (1564/66-1651), and indeed there are some similarities with two signed studies of trees by Bloemaert in Bremen and Copenhagen (respectively J. Bolten, Abraham Bloemaert: The Drawings, Amsterdam, 2007, nos. 1387 and 1388). However, certain stylistic qualities of the drawing, such as the foamy representation of the moss on the tree-trunk, are foreign to Bloemaert's work.

We are grateful to Jaap Bolten for his assistance in preparing this catalogue note.
