FLEMISH SCHOOL 17th CENTURY, CIRCLE OF JAN BRUEGHEL THE YOUNGER, VILLAGE WEDDING FEAST, OIL ON PANEL, WITH THE MARK OF THE ANTWERP GUILD OF SAINT LUKE AND THE PANEL MAKER'S MARK

This joyous peasant wedding feast can be compared with a series of panels of similar composition by Pieter Brueghel the Younger (1564-1638) from 1616 (see K. Ertz, Pieter Brueghel der Jüngere (1564-1637/38). Die Gemälde mit kritischem Oeuvrekatalog, Lingen, 1988/2000, II, p. 659-664). Although the absence of any under-drawing and the softer, smoother execution of the composition indicate that this painting belongs to an artist of the master's entourage, the caricatural nature of the figures and their Breugelian bonhomie add greatly to the panel's interest. The rustic feast takes place in the vast courtyard of a farmhouse, in which a long low table has been set up occupying the entire width of the foreground. Men and women, young and old, have gathered around the table, where they are eating. They are pouring drinks, passing or sharing dishes, feeding their children or flirting, while the piper pauses to refresh himself.

The true protagonists of the scene, however, are the bride and groom. They are not in the foreground, like the guests mentioned above, but at a separate table on the right of the composition, the bride surrounded by her family and friends. In the background, the bride's parents honour the tradition of offering bread to the needy. The composition and iconography of this festive gathering represent a masterly development of the work of Pieter Brueghel the Elder (c. 1525/1530-1569). The elongated table allows the figures to be presented as if they were in a frieze, lined up in all sorts of poses - front, back, kneeling, standing, crouching, lying down, looking left and right, raising their arms, drinking, toasting, eating and kissing.

Each individual motif consists of an interaction between two or more figures, their poses creating a rhythmic movement that leads the viewer's gaze from one group to the next. The frieze-like composition of the figures in the foreground guides the viewer to the table on the right, whose diagonal position in turn points back to the centre. The bright colours, the green, yellow, red and blue of the figures' clothing accentuate this pictorial rhythm. The long table with the feasting peasants thus becomes not only a successful compositional arrangement, but also a clever iconographic device.

The artist has shown a great sense of humour by placing the real protagonist of the scene, the bride, to the side of the composition to make the least important but most amusing part the centre of attention.
