Laren, Singer Museum, Oude Tekeningen uit de Nederlanden. Verzameling Prof. E. Perman, Stockholm, 1962, cat. 55 (as Gijsbert Gillis d'Hondecoeter)
This impressive, boldly drawn wooded river landscape has been associated with both Gillis Claesz. de Hondecoeter (1575/80-1638) and his son Gijsbert Gillisz. de Hondecoeter (1603-1653). It is, though, rather wilder in execution than any certainly attributable drawings by either artist, and is in some ways more reminiscent of certain works by Anton Mirou, another artist who was active in Frankenthal, such as the Landscape with Water Mill, Castle and Buildings, one of a series of drawings by the artist in Budapest.1
