JACOB GRIMMER (FLEMISH CIRCA 1525-1590)TRAVELLERS ON A TRACK, A VIEW OF ANTWERP BEYONDOil on panel22.5 x 26.5cm (8¾ x 10¼ in.)Provenance: Koetser Gallery, London, 1971 (colour reproduction no. 42) Literature: E. Greindl, Monographie de Jacob Grimmer 1972, no. 55 Reine de Bertier de Sauvigny, Jacob et Abel Grimmer Catalogue Raisonné, Brussels 1991, no. 3Jacob Grimmer, born in Antwerp, was a contemporary of Peter Brueghel the Elder who clearly influenced this small but elegant landscape. Gillis Mostaert also had a marked influence on his oeuvre and most likely painted the figures in this panel. Most of Grimmer's works when signed and dated (which is rare) were painted between 1553 and 1588. This present composition, with the tower in the background, shows significant similarities to a signed and dated panel painted in 1583 in the collection of the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna (cat. rais. XXVII).
