About this artwork
This drawing is attributed to Philips de Koninck, an accomplished student of Rembrandt, who also learned the art of landscape from his brother, Jacob de Koninck. In painting he produced some superb flat panoramas with luminous skies; his landscape drawings reveal an elegant and calligraphic line.
