(Brussels 1564–1638 Antwerp)
A Mountainous Landscape – La Source.

The letter sequence of the signature BREVGHEL (the E stands before the V) in the lower centre of the picture allows Ertz to assume that the tondo was created after 1616. Prior to that time, the artist only signed with BRVEGHEL (the V stands before the E).
