Herman van Swanevelt (Woerden circa 1600-1665 Paris) Italianate landscape with figures fishing by a stream oil on canvas, unlined 80 x 107cm (31 1/2 x 42 1/8in). Fußnoten Provenance Private Collection, UK, 19th century Sale, Sotheby's, London, 30 October 2008, lot 253, where purchased by the present owner Literature A. C. Steland, Herman van Swanevelt Petersberg, 2010, cat. no. G2, 36/N, pp. 166-7, ill., p. 446, fig. G 104/N In her catalogue entry for the present painting, Ann Charlotte Steland compares the strong pastel colouring and the brightly lit landscape to the signed and dated work of 1643 offered at Christie's, London, 7 July 2000, lot 224. This would suggest that the present landscape was painted either during the last years of the artist's first stay in Italy or at the very beginning of his sojourn in Paris. Although it is not topographically accurate, it very probably takes as its inspiration the valley of the Aniene near Tivoli with its impressive cascade.
