Note du spécialiste

This picture derives from a fragment of an original composition by Jan Brueghel the Elder, dated by Klaus Ertz to around 1602 (previously with Galerie Gismondi, Paris; see K. Ertz and C. Nitze-Ertz, Jan Brueghel der Ältere (1568- 1625): Kritischer Katalog der Gemälde, Lingen, 2008, I, pp. 295-6, no. 137, illustrated).

We are grateful to Dr. Luuk Pijl for confirming the attribution on the basis of photographs, who dates the work to the 1610s.
