Schippers met hun boten aan de oever van een Italiaans meer; misschien bedoeld als de vlucht naar Egypte (easel painting (painting by form); Adam Pijnacker (Schiedam 1622-02-15 - Amsterdam 1673-03-28); 1650/1670; Rijksmuseum (Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands); SK-A-321; RM001.collect.5050)

Note: Whether Adam Pynacker ever travelled to Italy is not known. Nevertheless, most of his paintings certainly portray Italian landscapes. The characteristic Italian light bathes the scene in a golden glow, glancing off the white bark of the beech and the mossy tree trunks in the foreground and providing brilliant highlights. The oddly-shaped trunks in the foreground and on the right round off the painting. Pynacker constructed this composition ingeniously. He appears to zoom in on his subject. The large tree trunks in the foreground form the framework for the scene around the boats. Behind that are the wooded mountains that become increasingly light as they recede into the distance.
