This study is typical of Teniers' spontaneously drawn landscapes in black lead, although the extensive additional use of wash is unusual. Few of the artist's landscape drawings are clearly connected with his paintings, and there is no known picture incorporating the view seen here. For further information on Teniers as a draughtsman, see M. Klinge.
