Master of the Small Landscapes

Master of the Small Landscapes (mid-16th century)

• Was a Flemish artist from the mid-16th century known for his landscape drawings.
• The name of this unidentified artist is derived from a series of 44 prints of landscapes that were created after the artist’s drawings, some of which have been preserved.
• The prints were published by Hieronymus Cock in Antwerp in two series in 1559, and by Philips Galle in 1601.
• The works of the Master of the small landscapes constitute an important link in the evolution of the landscape into an independent genre.
