Amsterdam, Rijksmuseum, 1929, no. 210 (as Jan van Goyen, according to old label on former backing, now lost)
Condition
Hinge mounted. There is a slight discoloration to the four edges of the sheet, probably as a result of an old mount.

There are some small nicks to the edges of the sheet and some light rubbing to the chalk in places. Generally the medium is strong.
