Vanaf 1650 ontwikkelde hij zijn eigen stijl: Hollandse, maar ook exotische, op Italiλ geοnspireerde landschappen, riviergezichten, zee- en ruiterstukken. Hij is nooit in Italiλ geweest, maar toch hebben zijn schilderijen een zuidelijke, zonnige sfeer.
He received painting lessons from his father, the landscape painter Jacob Gerritszoon Cuyp. From 1650 he developed his own style: Dutch, but also exotic, Italian-inspired landscapes, river views, sea and equestrian paintings. He had never been to Italy, but his paintings still have a southern, sunny atmosphere.
