Condition
The panel is stable, flat and not cradled. On the reverse it is beveled along all four sides. The paint layer is very well-preserved, with many details and bright colors remaining, particularly in the trees. The varnish is fresh and attractive. The panel is made up of two horizontal pieces of wood joined horizontally at the center. There is some retouching along the join which can be seen with the naked eye in the sky and lighter areas, but is not very distracting. Under ultra violet light, one can see scattered retouchings along the join as well as in the sky, mostly in the blue areas. There are fewer retouchings in the foreground, most of them being in the dark areas in the lower left quadrant.

This picturesque and peaceful Dutch scene is a fine example of the works produced by the prolific landscape artist Roelof Jansz. van Vries in the second half of the seventeenth century. In addition to his hometown of Haarlem, van Vries was also active Leiden and Amsterdam, and he was influenced by a number of his contemporaries, such as Jacob van Ruisdael, Meindert Hobbema, and Cornelis Decker.
