Description du lot
Oil on prepared laid paper, apocryphal signature "J.v.d.Velde" (part. horiz. crack).
Laid down on paper. Hinged at upper edges, under passe-partout.
Jan Martens (or "Martszen") de Jonge (1610-1647) produced many similar drawings, prints and paintings of this subject, see for example in Amsterdam (Rijksmuseum, inv. SK-A-2153) and Rotterdam (Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, inv. 1494 (OK)). This dynamic sheet, however, is a rare example of a preserved oil sketch on paper.
