A Peasant seated on a Stool - Rafael Valls

Current Collection

London, United Kingdom

Medium: Oil on Panel
Status: In Gallery Collection
Collect24 Art ID: C24-150545

Cornelis Bega's larger pictures strongly take after his teacher Adriaen van Ostade. Some of his smaller works, however, are rather more enigmatic and distinct to Bega like the present pictures. The warm gloom of a tavern, the narrowly cropped scene, and the figures with their backs turned make this pair unusual amongst genre paintings. Neither portrait-like nor narrative focused, these scenes appear more like a glance around a room.
