Daniel Adriaensen - Man Eating from an Earthenware Pot, Daniël Boone, c. 1660 - c. 1680Man Eating from an Earthenware Pot, Daniël Boone, c. 1660 - c. 1680Daniel Adriaensen

This undistinguished work is typical of the little that is known of Boone’s oeuvre; the handling is more suggestive of Egbert van Heemskerk I (c. 1634-1704) than any other known Flemish painter of the time. Van Heemskerk was active from the early 1660s in Amsterdam and thereabouts and in London from...

Like the Man Eating from an Earthenware Pot (SK-A-1600), the other work by Daniel Boone in the Rijksmuseum, this painting in handling and the subject matter appears to owe as much to Egbert van Heemskerk I (c. 1634-1704) as to any Flemish artist of the time, though there is a connection with the Bac...

This work is painted on a support of a single piece of oak timber, from a tree grown in the west German/Netherlandish region, which would have been ready for use from 1623. Although not seen here at his best, there could be no reason to doubt Teniers’s authorship of this work, which is to be dated a...
