About the Item

Follower of David Teniers the Younger, 17th century St. Anthony at prayer Oil on copper, 38 x 30 cm Framed, 43 x 35 cm From the late 16th century, the complex symbolism used by Bosch gave way to a proliferation of rather suggestive demons. Teniers also adapted, but he stuck to a consistent iconographic code-for example, the tools and pipe that the monsters carried were objects of everyday life, and thus could be recognized by the seventeenth-century viewer. His fame also encouraged the proliferation of revivals, such as the copper in question depicting the saint praying in his cave, where he spent the first 35 years of his hermitage. Gone in this version are the usual demonic creatures carrying jugs of wine, all allusions to the sensory pleasures of life. The main comparison can be made with the version of the saint signed by Teniers in a private collection, mirroring ours. It can be assumed that the Flemish artist who made this version was based on one of the many engravings circulating in Flanders and northern Europe in general at the time. David Teniers the Younger (1610-1690) was the first of these masters to depict drinkers and smokers, card and dice players with often humorous vein, drawing inspiration from everyday reality. Given the stylistic and thematic characters of the works examined, a realization by the hand of a painter active in his circle is to be identified. David Teniers the younger was born in Antwerp in 1610; he received his first rudiments of painting from his father, before being influenced by the painting of his peer and friend Adriaen Brouwer (1605-1638), a painter of bright and vivid tones, attentive to detail and detail. In 1632 he is listed as a member of the Guild of St. Luke. His pictures of Flemish folk life, influenced by his friend Brouwer enjoyed considerable success, collected even by the aristocratic classes and the ruling houses themselves.
