vii AELBERT CUYP 143 464. CATTLE AND FIGURES IN A LANDSCAPE. In the foreground are a shepherdess and a man with an ass laden with vege- tables. The cattle are picturesquely distributed. Farther away are figures reposing. Mentioned by Waagen (ii. 261). In the collection of James Morrison, London. 465. TRAVELLERS IN A HILLY LANDSCAPE, WITH A RIVER (or, Peasants with Mules). Sm. 27 and Suppl. 56. A hilly landscape traversed by a river, with bushy banks ; beyond are a castle and other buildings on a hill. In the foreground, on a road going to the right, a man dressed in a red jacket, black breeches, and white stockings, leads an ass or mule. Behind comes a second beast, on which is seated a woman with her back to the spectator. Farther back a man is beating a third animal. A sunny morning. This picture agrees almost exactly with the Breslau picture (463). The treatment of the foliage and twigs in the left foreground is rather different from Cuyp's usual style. The picture is good in quality. Sm. says that the woman is seated on the first ass ; this is true for the Breslau picture. The engraving shows the woman on the second ass.
