Winter Landscape
late 16th – early 17th century
Oil on wood
873-1-162
Bequeathed by Jean-Marie de Silguy in 1864
H. 41,5 cm - L. 56,5 cm
The winter landscape is considered an excellent example of 17th century Dutch painting. It was first included in the series, the « Four seasons » and the « Twelve months », and then became a separate genre.
Joos de Momper the younger became a specialist, working with Sebastiaen Vrancx (1573 - 1647) who was responsible for painting the figures. The attribution of this work to Momper II is uncertain and the name of another specialist, Gijsbrecht Lytens has sometimes been put forward.
