Bril, Paul (1554-1626) (studio/ surroundings of).
(A river landscape with ruined tower on a cliff in the foreground).
Drawing, pen and brown ink, grey-blue wash, 14,8x32,7 cm., framed.
- Sl. foxed and soiled; blue stain near lower edge.
= A very similar drawing in style, manner and composition in the British Museum (inv. 5236.65), certainly by the same artist. That drawing (attributed by the British Museum to Paul Bril) is a preliminary study for this one. A print by Guillam van Nieulandt II after Paul Bril shows the same composition but mirrored and with large figures in the foreground (Hollstein 111). SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE LXXXIX.
