Description
The Studio Of David Teniers the Younger (1610–1690) was a highly prolific 17th-century Flemish artistic enterprise in Antwerp and Brussels, known for producing, copying, and imitating popular genre scenes of peasant life, taverns, and, notably, "singeries" (monkeys acting as humans). As a premier painter and court curator, his workshop often created multiple versions of popular compositions, some finished by himself or students influenced by his hand.-
This charming example depicts a veritable array of revellers holding a feast by a tavern. It’s after similar works by Flemish artist, David Teniers the Younger II (1610-1690), with examples of his works in the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza Madrid.
-
Hand-in-hand, a lively ring of villagers conduct a merry dance to the tune of a bagpiper standing atop an oak barrel. With legs raised, it’s a jaunty jig and probably well-known by a typical 17th-century patron.
-
Around them, more than forty figures are huddled by tables in various states of inebriation - while a family of dignitaries maintains a sensible distance.
Beyond, a large church indicates a nearby town with several buildings nestled between rolling hills.
-
Together with his workshop, David Teniers The Younger produced numerous genre scenes in this manner with many of the elements reused.
-
The central tree is a common inclusion and acts as a compositional device to split the view. The original painting was acquired by Charles IV of Spain and once hung at the Royal Palace.
