Attributed to Jan Wildens (Antwerp 1586-1653)

Milkmaids and a drover with cattle in a landscape
oil on panel, stamped with panelmaker's mark of the hands and castle of the city of Antwerp
55.2 x 80.5cm (21 3/4 x 31 11/16in).

Footnotes

The present composition is after Rubens's original work, now in the Alte Pinakothek, Munich. Wildens is known to have employed the central bull, the milkmaid and the right hand reclining bull in a landscape of his (oil on canvas, with Koller, Zurich, 14 September 2010, lot 3061). The quality of the present work would suggest an artist of that calibre in Rubens's close circle.
