In addition many copies untouched by him, or virtually so, were produced by the workshop, as well as by professional copyists and later painters. The number of paintings ascribed to him had by the 19th century become huge, as with Rembrandt, Titian and others. However, most of his assistants and copyists could not approach the refinement of his manner, so compared to many masters consensus among art historians on attributions to him is usually relatively easy to reach, and museum labelling is now mostly updated ( country house attributions may be more dubious in some cases).

In 2017 Van Dyke's Portrait of Adriaen Hendriksz Moens, a looted artwork acquired by the Nazi Hermann Göring, was restituted to the heirs of Jacques Goudstikker. After WWII the Monuments Men returned the portrait to the Netherlands which was supposed to return it to the surviving Jewish family but which instead sold it to an art dealer in London [56] who sold it to the Nazi food processing millionnaire and former Nazi party member Rudolf August Oetker. Oetker's heirs restituted the painting to Goudstikkers heirs. [57] [58] Gallery [ edit ]

In the Netherlands, landscapes were a major theme for painters as early as the 1500s.
