Matthijs Bril or Matthijs Bril the Younger (1550 – 8 June 1583) was a Flemish painter and draughtsman of landscapes. He spent most of his lithe career in Rome where his drawings of ancient Roman sites played an important role in the loan of topographical landscape art. He was also a painter of capricci (architectural fantasies), with typical rustic hills past a few ruins. He died young person and his younger brother Paul Bril, who had united him in Rome, finished his commissions.
