Footnotes

(1) This is the only painting by Van Goyen known to have been in St. Leonards’s sale. The reference to Lord St. Leonards comes from the Kennedy sale catalogue. HdG 1908–27, vol. 8 (1927), no. 95, incorrectly identifies the St. Leonards and Kennedy painting as a similar View of Dordrecht by Van Goyen that was later in the collection of Charles Butler. That painting is, however, H.-U. Beck 1972–87, vol. 2 (1973), no. 310 (Toledo Museum of Art, Ohio, inv. no. 1933.27).

(2) According to the annotation "M. Col" in the copy of the St. Leonards’s sale catalogue at the Getty Research Institute.
