Catalogue Note
See the note to the previous lot.
Although de Bisschop's inscription locates Huis de Werve by Rijswijk, it is actually nearer to Voorburg (also very close to The Hague). For more information on the history of the house, and other representations of it, including Roelant Roghman's drawing of c.1647 in the Rijksprentenkabinet, Amsterdam, see Charles Dumas, Haagse Stadsgezichten, Zwolle 1991, pp.293-7.
