This impressive panel bears the signature of Aelbert Cuyp, and until recently was never doubted as his work. Cuyp's paintings were widely appreciated in the eighteenth century, and attracted a number of imitators. The most capable of them, Jacob van Strij, is very probably the author of this picture. Among the qualities that indicate an eighteenth-century painter are the impasto treatment of the clouds, the simplified highlights, the saturated greens and blues, and a tendency to render details as picturesque accents. Several motifs are repeated from paintings by Cuyp. The right background, for example, is derived from the so-called Salmon Fishing in the Mauritshuis, The Hague.
