About the Item

Late 19th century oil on canvas copy of The King Drinks by Jacques Jordeans, currently held in the Louvre, Paris. The painting is not signed but is probably an academic copy painted in situ in the museum by a student. Fine quality, great size and extremely decorative, though with extensive restoration. Jacques (Jacob) Jordaens (19 May 1593 – 18 October 1678 was a Flemish painter, draughtsman and a designer of tapestries and prints. He was a prolific artist who created biblical, mythological, and allegorical compositions, genre scenes, landscapes, illustrations of Flemish sayings and portraits. After the death of Rubens and Anthony van Dyck, he became the leading Flemish Baroque painter of his time. Unlike those illustrious contemporaries he never travelled abroad to study the Antique and Italian painting and, except for a few short trips to locations elsewhere in the Low Countries, he resided in Antwerp his entire life. He also remained largely indifferent to Rubens and van Dyck's intellectual and courtly aspirations. This attitude was expressed in his art through a lack of idealistic treatment which contrasted with that of these contemporaries. He is today mostly identified with his large-scale genre scenes such as The King Drinks (also called the Feast of the Bean King).
