Mediterranean River Landscape with a Fortress on a Rock

This finely painted Mediterranean landscape is reminiscent of compositions by the Dutch painter Bartholomeus Breenbergh (1598-1657). An attribution to the Neapolitan artist Scipione Compagno (c. 1621 - c. 1680) has been suggested on the basis of the monogram.
