M Van Heyden (or M Van Leyden) (Dutch, 18th century) Westminster from

signed and extensively inscribed verso, bodycolour, 29.5 x 43cm; mount 48 x 63.5cm; unframed, The topographical details of this early view of London derive from an oil painting by the Haarlem painter Thomas Wijck (1616-1677) of about 1660, last recorded in the possession of Mr E C Grenfell. Although the architectural details are taken from this 17th-century source, the scene is enlivened with figures in costume from circa 1750, the efforts of an as- yet-untraced Dutch artist known as M Van Heyden (or Van Leyden), according to an inscription on the reverse.
