WORKSHOP OF GABRIEL METSU (Leiden, 1629 - Amsterdam, 1667)

Hunter dressing up after diving into a stream

Oil on canvas, cm. 50x62. Framed

The canvas is a beautiful antique replica of Gabriel Metsu's signed painting today at the De Leiden Collection. Although the character depicted is probably a self-portrait of the painter, his naked figure, hairless and muscular, is at the same time an ideal representation of the male body according to the canons of Dutch culture of the time. LITERATURE: A.E. Waiboer, Gabriel Metsu, cat. of the exhibition, Dublin, National Gallery of Ireland, 4 September - 5 December 2010, Dublin 2010, pp. 142-144, n. 35.
