We are grateful to Fred Meijer for confirming the attribution of the present painting to François Verwilt on the basis of photographs. Meijer notes that the painting is a main work by the versatile artist who painted arcadian landscapes with herdsmen and nymphs in the manner of his teacher Cornelis van Poelenburgh. Verwilt also painted portraits which are close to works by Bartholomeus van der Helst. His rare interior paintings with merry companies have been influenced by Anthonie Palamedesz.
