Lot Essay

Jacob Jordaens and his studio depicted the The Fable of the Satyr and the Peasants several times. These compositions all differ slightly in the number and positioning of the figures. The present, hitherto unknown version, is closest to the composition by Jacob Jordaens in the Göteborgs Konstmuseum, Göteborg.
