Descriptive Catalogue no. 87: 'To the right of the picture is seen a hill covered here and there with trees, principally on the summit ... On the same side is seen, towards the bottom of the picure, a rivulet over which is a bridge, and on this side is advancing, playing on the flute, a shepherd followed by two cows and a large flock of sheep. The centre presents a rich pasture of the finest verdure, and mountains beyond, whilst on the left, and on this side, we see some young trees and an old willow lopped, shooting out fresh branches, and the root of which is discovered in parts, from apertures; the light of the sun strikes on one side of the sky, whilst the other announces rain, and presents two rainbows. There is a fine print taken from this picture, called the Two Rainbows of Rubens. It comes from the cabinet of Prince Rupert'). £110.5. Bt in. Handwritten note in copy of catalogue at The Hague, RKD: '64'. [i.e. 6 x 4]; London, Sir Francis Bourgeois, 1807-1811; Bourgeois Bequest, 1811. |
