About the Item

Antichità Castelbarco SRLS is proud to present: The Satyr and the Peasant (from Aesop, Fables, LXXIV) Jacob Jordaens (Antwerp 1593 - Antwerp 1678), Follower of Oil on canvas (68 x 62 cm. - in frame 97 x 90 cm.) We offer you an interesting painting, the unusual subject of which is inspired by Aesop's fable 'The Satyr and the Farmer's Family', elaborated in various models by the great masters of seventeenth-century Dutch painting, and in particular by Jacob Jordaens (Antwerp 1593 - Antwerp 1678), who delighted in re-proposing it in numerous variants, thanks to his vigorous and typically Flemish painting style. Jordaens is in fact considered a master par excellence of the Golden Age of Flemish painting, favouring, as we can perfectly see in these particular compositions, the use of scenes from everyday life in Flanders during the 17th century as a theatre for the illustration of old popular proverbs. The fable tells of a satyr who, on a winter's day, saved the life of a peasant lost in a snowstorm and became his friend. As a sign of gratitude, the farmer invited his new friend to share a dinner with his family. For Aesop, the moral value of this fable was to be wary of men, often ambiguous, who obtain heat and cold with the same tool. In practice, they are duplicitous or false and often have contradictory actions. Our work is inspired by one of Jacob Jordaens' paintings, one of which is now in the Musées Royaux des Beaux-Arts de Belgique in Brussels, made by the master around 1620, and of which there is also a valuable engraving by Lucas Vorsterman I in the British Museum in London from which our author must have naturally drawn inspiration [1]. In particular, our beautiful canvas, an interesting version that can be placed between the 17th and 18th century, denotes an excellent quality of execution, as the photographed details we present here demonstrate. It presents an analytical painting both in detail and in the rendering of the characters, and the expressive strength of the rendering of the faces, among all that of the satyr, is worthy of mention. The theatricality of the scene, on a par with Jordaens' prototypes, is underpinned by the vivid, intense and brilliant colours and the strength of the light that irradiates the characters.

Located in Greven, DE

Hercules and Omphale Oil on panel, 52 x 41 cm According to legend, Hercules had to make atonement and became a slave to the Lydian queen Omphale. When she found out who her slave was, she married him. Falling for his mistress and made effeminate by the luxury of court life, the former hero allowed himself to become the laughing stock of the court. He dressed in women's clothes, spun wool and did other women's work, whereas Omphale wore his lion's skin and carried a wooden club. When the time of punishment was over, the hero realised his delusion and left Omphale. So far, the painting could not be clearly assigned to an artist. Nevertheless, it impresses with its fluid and convincing painting, whose colourfulness and conception are reminiscent of the Prague School around Bartholomäus Spranger. This work follows an engraving and an etching made by Michel Dorigny in 1643 after a design by Simon Vouet. It shows the same scene but the print differs in minor details from the present painting (see e.g. the head of the lion) and the treatment of the faces seems to be painted more detailed and refined. So far there is no painting...
