拍品資料及來源

The style of painting can be associated with Frederik van Frijtom, though the hand is more similar to that seen on a pair square-shaped plaques in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam which are attributed to painter Pieter Waelpot, (obj. nos. BK-1998-44-A and B.); and a pair of flower bricks, marked AK for Adrianus Kocx of the Greek A factory (obj. no. BK-KOG-1533.)

A plaque of this form dated 1684 painted with a riverscape was sold at Sotheby's New York, 26th April 2017, lot 135; a further plaque also dated 1684 is with Aronson, Amsterdam. The ornate moulded frame is similar to the square plaque attributed to Frijtom, sold in these rooms, The Joseph M. Morpurgo collection, 10th May 2016, lot 93.
