to confirm the later inscription on the drawing which attributes it to Nicolaes
Berchem (1621-1683). Also the type of fountain, inspired by the fountain on the
Forum Romanum, makes an appearance in other signed works by Berchem,
such as the painting in the Dulwich Picture Gallery (London) or a drawing with a
similar subject in the Teylers Museum (Haarlem), inv. Q19.

Skillful drawing of a worn-down farm house in a Dutch summer landscape with
a willow and a girl in the left foreground. A pair of farmers has returned from the
field in the shadowy background. The style approaches the rustic landscapes
of A. Bloemaert (1564-1651) in its rendering of the tree leaves and the crosshatching
in order to create depth and volume.
Two soldiers on horseback fighting each other with pistols or rapiers. The
attribution to Bosschaert is based solely on the monogram in the lower left
corner which corresponds to a similar signature mentioned by Nagler (no. 1562).
No other drawings by Jeronimus Bosschaert are known, precluding comparable
stylistic analysis.
