River Landscape with a Town in the Distance
by NEYTS, Gillis, Watercolour over pen and brown ink, 169 x 224 mm
With its miniature style the work of Gillis Neyts conforms to the type of landscape conceived by Jan Brueghel the Elder. He is known more for his many drawings of landscapes and town views, executed in a fine pointillist technique, than for his paintings.
