DESCRIPTION
Flemish school of the 17th century.
"Interior of a tavern".
Oil on panel.
Measurements: 27 x 34 cm; 57 x 67 cm (frame).
This work is part of the genre of tavern painting, created in early Baroque Flanders by the masters Adriaen Brouwer (1605 - 1638) and David Teniers (1610 - 1690), which soon came to Holland. As its name suggests, these are scenes set in taverns, called costumbrista works for showing the common customs of the common people of the time, with a variety of styles important, but always maintaining both the theme and a clear preference for an earthy palette. Influenced by the two masters mentioned above, the painter who makes this type of work, usually works an interior space with a very refined chromatic range, based on earthy and ochre tones, typical of the naturalism of the first baroque. In terms of style, these painters would normally be close to Teniers (more detailed works; precise, loose but short brushstrokes, defining the shapes and qualities of figures and objects, without downplaying the importance of drawing), or Brower (more caricatured style, and brushstrokes and shapes different from those of Teniers).
