Tavern Scenes - Master Of The 19th Century
"Tavern Scenes"
Flemish Master of the 19th century
School of David Teniers II the Younger (Antwerp, 1610 – Brussels, 1690)
Oil on panel
Antique gild frame
Panel 47 x 30 cm Frame 67 x 50 cm
Excellent condition.
This pair of oil paintings on panel is an excellent example of the most interesting and refined expression of Flemish painting. In fact, in addition to their famous still lifes, the Belgian and Dutch masters distinguished themselves throughout Europe for their incredible production of genre scenes, set in tavern interiors or outdoors in villages or the countryside. The protagonists of these paintings took on caricatural, sometimes grotesque, physical features, with deliberately exaggerated expressions and attitudes.
The two panels published here perfectly illustrate the characteristics of this particular artistic expression, reflecting the pictorial taste of one of its most celebrated exponents, the Antwerp "Bambocciante" master David Teniers the Younger (Antwerp, 1610 – Brussels, 1690), son of Teniers the Elder and his pupil, and brother of three other accomplished artists.
The scenes depicted powerfully depict the interiors of two taverns, animated by typical village characters intent on spending a carefree moment while cheerfully drinking a mug of beer.
The two compositions are distinguished by the meticulous precision in the figurative rendering of the varied presence of objects and figures, resulting in a highly interesting and pleasing effect, with particularly warm and vibrant tones.
The splendid frames, richly carved and gilded, complement the panels excellently and constitute a notable added value to the two works, increasing their size and importance.
