École flamande, suiveur de David Teniers II (1610-1690): Paysage animé avec une église, huile sur panneau, 18ème/19ème siècle

Work: 37 x 24 cm
Frame: 48 x 35,5 cm

The back of the panel with the marks of Antwerp (the two hands and the castle of Antwerp), as well as the mark of the panel maker Michiel Claessens (a clover leaf, link). In our opinion, this is a 17th-C. panel with later painting (a reclaimed panel).
