309. The Companion. A Landscape, with a large thatched
house on the right, extending to the middle, before which are
three gentlemen, who have stopped to bait their horses ; one of
them is reclining on a bank, another stands before him, and
near them is a woman emptying a measure of corn into the
horse’s trough; the third is still on his steed: near the front,
and close to the side of the house, sits a fine white dog.
Now in the Dulwich Gallery, and worth 350 gs.
310. A View on the Sea-shore at Scheveling. Under a sand-
hill, the summit of which is surmounted by a tower, is a group
of eight figures, forming a Dutch Auction for the sale of fish,
some of which lie on the sands; near them is a gray horse,
laden with fishing tackle, feeding out of a sack ; and on the
farther side a gentleman on horseback, at a little distance from
whom are two dogs; and in front two children, on a log of
wood. Painted in the artist’s first manner.
