After Jacobus Joseph Eeckhout, A Dutch Drinking Companion in Golds, Red & Cream

(unknown date)

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?
