"The Flemish painter and printmaker Adriaen van Stalbemt worked mainly in Antwerp, where he enjoyed a long and productive career. Although he is best remembered today as a painter of landscapes, in his own day he was probably known chiefly as a figure painter. Besides landscape views, he painted religious, mythological and allegorical scenes, as well as gallery interiors. His oeuvre shows great stylistic variety, but owing to a paucity of dated paintings, it is difficult to establish a reliable chronology. A gifted figure painter, he was regularly invited to paint the staffage in the compositions of his fellow painters."
