<P> Landscape with the Fall of Icarus is a painting in oil on canvas measuring 73.5 by 112 centimetres ( 28.9 in × 44.1 in ) in the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium in Brussels . It was long thought to be by the leading painter of Dutch and Flemish Renaissance painting , Pieter Bruegel the Elder . However , following technical examinations in 1996 of the painting hanging in the Brussels museum that attribution is regarded as very doubtful , and the painting , perhaps painted in the 1560s , is now usually seen as a good early copy by an unknown artist of Bruegel 's lost original , perhaps from about 1558 . According to the museum : `` It is doubtful the execution is by Breugel the Elder , but the composition can be said with certainty to be his '' , although recent technical research has re-opened the question . </P>
