Around 1643, Jan van Goyen began to increasingly add colour to his hitherto almost monochromatic landscapes in order to achieve a more realistic effect. In this later period, architectural set pieces like churches, castles, ruins, gates, and towers played an important role in his art. These architectural elements were transferred into other contexts in the manner of a capriccio. The Pelekussenpoort in Utrecht shown in the present composition was also depicted by Van Goyen’s contemporaries, among them Jan van de Capelle and Salomon van Ruysdael, who similarly had little interest in a topographically accurate positioning of the gate.
