Jan Brueghel the Younger (1601
–1678) was a Flemish Baroque painter, the son of Jan Brueghel the Elder and grandson of Pieter Bruegel the Elder. He took over his father's workshop in the Habsburg Netherlands at an early age, initially painting similar subjects in a comparable style.
Brueghel the Younger largely focused on landscapes, floral still lifes, and allegorical scenes, echoing his father's thematic range. He gradually evolved his technique, developing a broader, more painterly, and less structured manner of painting. He frequently collaborated with other Flemish painters of his generation, and works such as "Bouquet of Flowers in an Earthenware Vase" (c. 1610) illustrate his still life compositions.
He continued the artistic legacy of his family, at times copying his father's works and selling them under his father's signature. His son, Abraham Bruegel, also pursued a career as a painter.
