Image description

Formerly attributed to Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c.1525-69). A swineherd surveys his livestock on a hill overlooking a town. Jacob Savery uses delicate modelling to describe the surrounding northern European countryside. Such landscapes by Jacob were once considered part of a consistent group representing Pieter Bruegel the Elder’s style in the 1560s. However, in 1986, around twenty-five of these were shown to be forgeries made two decades after Bruegel’s death. The quantity produced is demonstrative of a lucrative enterprise.
