 | | A MAGNIFICENT, previously unrecorded painting by Jan Brueghel the Elder, of one of the artist’s extraordinary visions of the underworld, is among the many distinguished paintings included in Sotheby’s summer sale of Important Old Master Paintings in London on July 12, 2001. |
 | | Unusually for a work by Pieter Brueghel the Younger, the painting has an unbroken provenance since the 18th century, when it entered the Bavarian Royal Collection, in whose possession it remained until 1938, when acquired by the family of the present owner. |
 | | A painting by Pieter Brueghel the younger, Landscape with Saint John the Baptist preaching, is estimated to fetch £400,000/600,000, while a painting executed by Jan Brueghel the younger in collaboration with Joos de Momper, depicting a winter landscape with a cart of a wooded road and a village beyond, has an estimate of £200,000/300,000. |
