Description: | Signed: yes Description: This small panel depicting a village scene with a group of peasants was painted by the prolific Flemish artist David Teniers the younger. An elderly man, with a knife at his belt, holds a stick. Behind him, three others are shown standing by a house, talking. The painting probably belongs to the Netherlandish tradition of allegorical scenes and may originally have been one of a pair. This work is from the considerable collection of paintings and other works of art that were bequeathed to the Nottingham Castle Museum in 1904 by Richard Godson Millns. | Subjects: | figure; everyday life; buildings and gardens; allegory | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Teniers, David, II (Flemish painter, 1610-1690) Æ | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8524... | Go to resource |
