In the lower left-hand corner an artist sits sketching by a tree. This is not an early example of a painting done in the open air, however, but derived at several steps removed from the works of Pieter Bruegel. The main elements are taken from a print, itself a pastiche of Bruegel’s landscapes, published after 1590. The artist was probably an Italian working in Italy. The picture is painted on poplar, the usual material for Italian panels.
