Petrus Kremer
Petrus KREMER Belgian painter Flemish peinter Adriaen BROUWER in prison 19th

About the Item

Petrus KREMER Antwerp, 1801 - Antwerp, 1888 Oil on wood panel 72 x 56.5 cm (85 x 72 cm with frame) Old label on the back Beautiful carved and gilded wooden frame from the beginning of the 19th century Petrus Kremer is a Belgian painter born in 1801 in Antwerp. He is one of the painters who represented the history of the famous Flemish people, in particular its painters (Rubens, Snyders, Brouwer...). Our painting represents the painter Adriaen Brouwer (who can be recognized from the portrait of the famous painter engraved by Schelte Adams Bolswert) in prison. He had been suspected of espionage by the Spanish (Spanish soldiers on the left). A famous episode from the life of a Flemish painter represented in the form of a genre scene, but with a picturesque style with its beautiful colors and a dramatic style also with the light and the composition (it seems like a theater stage). The painting is not signed but is characteristic of the production of Petrus Kremer. And we recognize certain recurring motifs in his paintings such as the pitcher placed at the bottom left and the easel and the palette on the right, which we find in his paintings on the lives of Flemish painters.
