Here the landscape on the lid of the virginals is shown in corrected perspective.

The similarity to Van Groenewegen's painting is remarkable, although some differences are also evident. The trees on the left are closer to the hill. The crowns are more voluminous. In addition, the corrected landscape by Vermeer has a lower horizon. Here the waterfall defines the bottom of the painting. The dark layer in the foreground has an undulating line, while the figures have also been omitted.
