Artist, Flemish, active from 1660

The image shows a landscape with a horizon in the distance, small trees, and a possible structure. A large, gnarled tree with intricate foliage is in the foreground. Small figures on horseback are to the left, leading a group along a path that disappears into the landscape. The style uses cross-hatching and detailed strokes for texture. The color palette is monochrome with earthy tones, creating contrast and highlights.
