About the piece

Painted in 1635 by Jan Brueghel the Younger, this oil on copper work exemplifies the Flemish tradition of intricate forest landscapes. The composition leads the eye from the dense, textured foliage of the foreground to a serene river valley and distant village, framing the journey with delicate light and profound natural detail characteristic of the Brueghel dynasty.
