Fine huge 16th century Flemish old master rocky landscape with monks, oil on canvas. Superb early and important rocky Capriccio landscape with monks and other figures near a waterside tower. Extensive view with a bold palette of colour and figures typical of Bril's painting that uses strong contrasting of light against the buildings and rocky terrain. Excellent condiotn for its age. Presented in a renaissance green and gilt frame. By a studio member/circle or possibly Bril's own hand but would need further authentication.
Provenance: Private Dorset, UK collection of Old Masters
Measurements: 48" x 42" framed
