Ertz (see Literature) dates this painting to the third decade of the 17th Century, by comparison with other extensive landscapes of the same period: compare, for example, the painting formerly with Leonard Koetser Gallery, London, and formerly in the H. van Strydonck collection, Brussels (op. cit., pp. 523-5, cat. nos. 206 and 211 respectively, both reproduced).
