About the Item

This charming mid-18th-century oil painting depicts a veritable array of revellers holding a feast by a tavern. It’s after a work by Flemish artist, David Teniers the Younger (1610-1690), which is currently in the collection at the Museo del Prado. 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. Held within a later frame. Provenance: Auction, Barcelona (appraised at 4,000-5,000 euros) / Private collection, UK. Our reference: BRV1990
