The present painting, one of only a handful of works by van der Schalcke with an identifiable landscape, was described by van Regteren Altena as 'one of the best views known of this frequently depicted village' (op. cit., p. 56). With its conspicuous church tower capped by a beacon, Egmond aan Zee, a small fishing village on the North Sea, was a popular destination for 17th-century Dutch painters like Jacob van Ruisdael, Salomon van Ruysdael, and Jan van Goyen, whose paintings of the 1640s provided a starting point for works such as this.
