= On paper with a large watermark showing the coat of arms of Amsterdam. Provenance: the collection A.M. van den Broek, with his collector's mark on verso.
= Old annot. in pen on verso (by the artist?) reading: "17 1/27 1762 oud 15 Jaar". Despite the fact that this drawing strongly resembles (but is not an exact copy of) the engraving that was printed in H. SPILMAN and C. VAN NOORDE, Aangenaame gezichten in de vermakelyke landsdouwen van Haarlem (...) (which is added to this lot), this was not the orig. model for the engraving. The explanation for the resemblance might be that the young Swertner accompanied Spilman and Van Noorde on their drawing trips in and around Haarlem and drew on the same spot as his two companions. The fact that he added "ad: viv. del. 1762" to his signature also points at the originality of the drawing.
