EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to a grand Christening Party in 1629, captured beautifully by the Flemish School. The oil on panel painting, measuring 56.2x86.7 cm, showcases an exquisite scene filled with joy and celebration. The attention to detail is remarkable as we observe the intricate costumes worn by the guests, reflecting the Elizabethan era. The room is adorned with lavish décor, creating an opulent ambiance that befits such a special occasion. In the center of this bustling gathering stands a proud family holding their infant child who is about to receive the sacrament of baptism. Surrounding them are friends and loved ones, all eagerly participating in this significant moment. The atmosphere exudes happiness and warmth as people engage in conversation while enjoying food and drink provided for this festive event. It's evident that every element has been carefully arranged to create a sense of harmony within the composition. Signed with the initials WA (monogrammist), this masterpiece now resides in a private collection but continues to captivate viewers through its timeless beauty. This painting serves as a testament to both artistic skill and cultural significance from centuries past. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can appreciate not only the technical mastery displayed by Flemish artists but also gain insight into historical customs surrounding christenings during this period.
