Follower of Jan Brueghel the Elder (1568-1625), Jacob’s Flight to Bethel, circa 1640, pen and brown ink and grey wash, on laid paper laid to a conservation mount, a made up area at lower right (not affecting the subject), slightly unevenly trimmed at bottom, 11.5 x 28.3 cm some foxing, mounted, framed and glazed, 32.5 x 50 cm (Quantity: 1) Provenance: Professor Harold Temperley (1879-1930); his son, Professor Neville Temperley (1917-2017); thence by descent to the current owner. Exhibited: Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge, September, 1939. A handwritten label which comes with this lot reads 'Original Rubens Flight into Egypt (subsequently corrected to 'Bethel')and described as Flight into Egypt / property of the Temperley / on loan to the Fitzwilliam Museum / September 1939.' A letter from Sotheby and Co., also with this lot, dated 2 September 1966 and addressed to Professor Neville Temperley, suggests that the drawing is almost certainly by a pupil of Jan Brueghel the Elder, the 'Velvet Brueghel.'
