"Die Furt im Gebirge" (The Ford in the Mountains) is a landscape painting by Flemish artist Frans de Momper, also known as Frans de Momper the Younger, to distinguish him from his father who was also a painter. Frans de Momper the Younger (1603–1660) was part of the de Momper family of artists and is known for his mountainous landscapes that blend the real with the fantastical. His work is often characterized by a high horizon and dramatic rocky scenery.

"Die Furt im Gebirge" exemplifies de Momper's style, which typically features a panoramic view of a mountainous landscape, with a winding path or river leading the viewer's eye into the distance. The painting likely dates from the 17th century, during the Baroque period, a time when landscape painting was becoming increasingly popular in Northern Europe. De Momper's landscapes are noted for their dynamic compositions and the skillful use of color to create depth and volume.

While the exact date of creation for "Die Furt im Gebirge" is not well-documented, the painting is consistent with de Momper's oeuvre in its depiction of a rugged and wild natural scene, populated by small figures to emphasize the grandeur of nature compared to the scale of human activity. These figures are often engaged in everyday tasks, suggesting a harmony between humanity and the natural world, despite the latter's overwhelming power.

The painting's current location, provenance, and exhibition history are not specified, which is not uncommon for works from this period. As with many Old Master paintings, detailed records may not have survived or have yet to be thoroughly researched and published.

"Die Furt im Gebirge" remains an important work within Frans de Momper's body of art, contributing to our understanding of 17th-century landscape painting and the development of this genre in the Flemish tradition. It reflects the period's growing interest in naturalism and the exploration of the landscape as a subject in its own right, beyond its role as a backdrop for historical or mythological scenes.
