ANTWERP SCHOOL CIRCA 1600, ORPHEUS CHARMING THE ANIMALS, OIL ON PANEL

The Frankenthal school, named after the eponymous village in the Bavarian Rhineland, left its mark on the northern landscape genre at the end of the sixteenth century. AT this time, a group of religious dissidents from the Netherlands arrived in the Protestant stronghold, seeking to escape the policy of repression carried out by the Habsburgs in the Catholic Netherlands following the fall of the city of Antwerp. Among them was the Antwerp landscape painter Gillis Van Coninxloo III (1544-1606), whose work moved from vast panoramas to depictions of densely wooded scenes, with bushy trees with gnarled trunks, featuring peasants, animals and mythological figures. The interplay of tones and the many layers of glazes he employed contribute to the dense quality of these landscapes, while at the same time creating a skilful play of light across the paint surface.

Van Coninxloo III left a lasting mark on the genre, influencing other painters who settled in Frankenthal, such as Antoine Mirou (1578-1661), as well as artists in the Antwerp tradition who remained in the Netherlands, such as David Vinckboons (1576-1632), Alexander Keirincx (1600-1652) and Joos de Momper (1564-1635). Some of them also disseminated the lessons of the Frankenthal school in foreign courts. These included Peter Stevens II (c. 1567-after 1626) and Roelandt Savery (1576-1639) in Prague, at the court of Rudolf II (1552-1612), Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire.

This painting is an elegant tribute to the stylistic principles of the Frankenthal school. The successive shades of brown, green and blue of the foliage add depth to the composition, allowing the animals to be skilfully arranged around Orpheus, seated in the centre. The treatment of the animals is reminiscent of those by the brothers Roelandt and Jacob (1592-1651) Savery, whose foliage is similar in density to that in this painting. The importance given to rendering the bark of the trunk on the right of the composition, whose shape, colours and consistency have come down to us in great detail, is a clear indication of the talent of the painter behind this composition, whose identity remains, sadly, a mystery to us.
