A copy by Jan Brueghel the Younger and Hendrik van Balen (I) sold at auction, London, Sotheby's, July 7, 2004 # 26.
There is a full drawing for the left part of the garland in Antwerp, Stedelijk Prentenkabinet.
According to Renger, the figures here were done first and the landscape was second.

Neumeister now says that garland was almost finished when figures were added; but also that the original plan (revealed in x-ray) was for a figural composition close to that of the Jan/Van Balen collaboration, Ertz 2008-10 #484. She suggests that reworking was done at request of a buyer, though did that person also suggest a new (and unique) collaborator??
