The present work bears a close relationship to drawings by the artist held in the British Museum, for example 'A wooded landscape with a tower by a bridge, a tree in the foreground to left' of 1625 (accession number 1946,0713.709). The use of brown wash is also reminiscent of that in 'A Boat in a Harbour', sold with Stephen Ongpin Fine Art, London.
