The Banquet at Epuron, attributed to Frans Francken II (Antwerp, 1581 - Antwerp, 1642)
Oil on board, 51 x 35 cm, framed measurements: 80 x 62 cm. Son of Frans Francken I and nephew of Hieronimus Francken. In 1605 he joined the Guild of Painters of San Lucas in his hometown, beginning a career that would last until 1640 in which he specialized as a painter of cabinet works. His contribution to the genre of gallery paintings is very important, which would influence artists like Teniers. His work is based on that of Jan Brueghel de Velours, although it also has obvious influences from his ancestors from the Francken family. Provenance: important private collection, property of an important collector, Spain. Bibliography: José Juan Pérez preciado, in Encyclopedia of the Prado Museum, t. III, pp. 1095-1096
