View of a Walled City

-
Oil on oak panel, 37 x 51 cm
Private collection

The painting depicts a walled city on an estuary with small vessels in the foreground. Traditionally but wrongly identified as Veere, this picture appears to portray a capriccio view of a Zealand seaport such as Veere, Middelburg and Vlissingen.
