This description is currently only available in Dutch.

Deze tekening is een kopie naar een tekening van Paul Bril in The British Museum in Londen, die 1598 gedateerd is.1 De kopie volgt de tekening van Bril nauwkeurig – alleen een vogel rechtsboven in de lucht werd niet overgenomen en het origineel heeft geen blauwe wassingen. Opmerkelijk is dat de grote boom op de voorgrond op de contourlijnen gedeeltelijk is uitgeknipt en op de doublure is bevestigd.
