About the Item

As the actual artist and date of this piece are unknown, perhaps this genre painting was done by a skilled student. But certainly, at this skill level, it could have served to provide a post-war placeholder for one of the tens of thousands of Dutch masterworks that left the Netherlands during World War II. Many never to be recovered. What is certain is that this work still offers the rich palette and lively composition characteristic of such paintings. The admired artist so slavishly copied here was Jacobus Josephus Eeckhout or Jacques Joseph Eeckhout (1793-1861) depending on whether he was working in his native Netherlands or in France. Eeckhout was known for his paintings of historical and genre subjects, like this one, as well as portraits. He was much inspired by the 17th-Century Dutch School, which happened to be very appealing to his own era’s mid-19th Century buyers, precisely for the Dutch School's vibrant coloring and compositions. Might this lively fellow provide jolly company for one’s den or family room bar?

"Flemish genre tavern scene"
Located in Edinburgh, GB
Unidentified Artist 17th-Century Tavern Scene Oil on canvas Framed: 113 x 103 cm Canvas: 96 x 91 cm This 17th-century oil painting captures a lively tavern scene, a popular subject in Dutch and Flemish genre painting of the Golden Age. The composition is rich in character and storytelling, depicting a group of men engaged in a card game, with coins, letters, and drinks scattered across the table. A standing woman, possibly a barmaid or concerned onlooker, leans in, while a man enters from the left, holding his hat and appearing amused by the game. In the foreground, a small child tends to a jug and tankard, adding a touch of humor and domestic realism. Executed in oil on canvas, the painting showcases earthy, warm tones and rich chiaroscuro, emphasizing the candlelit glow of the scene. The artist masterfully captures the textures of fabrics, wood, and metal, giving depth and dimension to the environment. The expressive faces and animated gestures highlight the social interactions typical of Dutch and Flemish tavern paintings...
