Description
Jan II. Breughel der Jüngere, 1601 – 1678 Antwerpen Nachfolge
Oil/canvas. Diana overheard by satyrs. The sleeping goddess Diana lies unclothed on her mantles with three companions. Diana is easily identifiable as the main character by her central positioning and her light incarnate. Two satyrs, lustful forest spirits, approach quietly from the background and try to pull aside the cloth covering the goddess. The foreground is decorated with various hunted wild animals. The painting is characterized by high-quality fine painting. Due to the partly different painting style and colouring, a division of labour of the workshop of Jan II. Breughel the Younger, which was specific to the Antwerp workshops. Expertise of Prof. Ottomeyer. Ret. Good condition. Antwerp, 17th century. H x W approx. 64,3 x 52,7 cm, ger. Frame probably Italy, 19th century
