Gillis van Valckenborch or Egidius van Valckenborch[1] (Antwerp 1570 – Frankfurt am Main, end March or 1 April 1622)[2] was a Flemish painter and draughtsman who spent most of his career in Germany. He was a member of the van Valckenborch dynasty of painters who painted mainly landscapes. Unlike his family members, he is mainly known for his large-scale compositions with many swirling figures depicting scenes from ancient history or mythology.[3] While his landscape drawings evidence his interest in landscape art no landscape paintings have been attributed to him.[4]
