Rutger Verburg(h) (1678 Rotterdam – 1727 ibid.) Village Festival A work featuring many figures, characteristic of the artist in both subject matter and style. Rutger Verburg(h), a son and student of Dionys Verburg(h), specialized in depictions of village festivals and fair celebrations in the tradition of David Teniers. Such depictions of exuberant, uninhibited, joyful revelry—with dancing, feasting, games, etc., had been a popular subject since the time of Pieter Brueghel the Elder, as peasant activities and behaviors at that time differed markedly from the more regimented, bourgeois lifestyle of city dwellers. The wealthy burghers appreciated such paintings, which both amused them and allowed them to feel superior to the peasants while reaffirming their own propriety. Oil on oak panel. Signed lower right on the overturned bench. Approx. 36.5 cm x 49.5 cm. Framed. Oil on oak panel. Signed on the overturned bench.
