Description: | The landscapes painted by Jan Brueghel the elder often include a large number of small figures, a structure dominated by vertical and oblique lines, and areas of clearly defined colour. This painting was probably produced by a follower or collaborator of Brueghel belonging to his workshop. The landscape is the setting for economic activities: the figures on the road are represented on their way to the market, while in the background ships sail towards a busy market town by the river. | Subjects: | landscape; figure; everyday life; trade and industry | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Brueghel, Jan, the elder (Flemish painter, draftsman, 1568-1625) Æ Attributed to school of Previously attributed to Keirincx, Alexander (Flemish painter, 1600-1652) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8995... | Go to resource |
