Europe, Victorian after David Teniers the Younger (also David Teniers II, Flemish, 1610-1690), ca. 1850 to 1880 CE. Oil painting on heavy gauge tin. A quaint genre painting of a group of peasants gathered around a table in a charming outdoor setting, about to partake in a feast.

This lively gathering takes place in a charming setting of vernacular houses and mature trees. Size: 6.5" L x 8" W (16.5 cm x 20.3 cm); 11.25" L x 12.375" W (28.6 cm x 31.4 cm) including frame

The curatorial essay begins, "David Teniers the Younger was not only one of the most prolific Flemish artists but also one of the most versatile. Although best known for his representations of peasant life, he painted subjects that range from alchemists and witches to allegorical and biblical themes. Moreover, Teniers painted views of collectors' cabinets, many of which include portraits, and also made small-scale copies of Italian paintings."
