In this painting and Ertz 1979 #10, the portions of the works done by Rottenhammer are exactly the same but Brueghel's landscapes make them into two quite different works. This would be to imply that Rottenhammer did his part first and then sent them to Jan to develop; can we tell if this is true? If the reverse were the case it would be extremely odd that Brueghel would paint two quite different works and Rottenhammer would put identical figures into each. This version is less lush than the other but more detailed.
