Jasper van der Lanen

Diana and her nymphs on the hunt

Jasper van der Lanen, Jasper van der Laanen or Kasper van der Lanen[1][2][3] (c. 1585 in Antwerp – after 1626 in Antwerp) was a Flemish landscape painter. He is known for his wooded landscapes with figures representing mythological or biblical stories or pastoral scenes. His work was only rediscovered in the mid-20th century. The discovery of additional signed works has made it possible to better understand the artist's style. As a result, there have been more attributions to him of works, which had previously been attributed to other painters with which he shared a similar approach to landscape painting such as Jan Brueghel the Younger.[4]
