Merry Company
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Jan van Bijlert (c. 1630): A Vibrant and Raucous Scene from the Dutch Golden Age Jan van Bijlert's "Merry Company" (c. 1630), a captivating oil on panel painting from the Dutch Golden Age, presents a lively and joyful moment in time. The full-length group portrait, now housed at the Walters Art Museum, showcases a diverse assembly of men and women, each engaged in various musical pursuits. At the center, a man in a red coat strums a violin with an intense expression, while a woman in a blue dress plays a flute, her cheeks flushed with excitement. A cellist, dressed in a green coat, leans in, his eyes closed in concentration as he plucks the strings of his instrument. To the right, a man in a white shirt and breeches, possibly drunk, holds up a mug and gestures animatedly, adding to the noisy and merry atmosphere. The painting's rich color palette and vibrant brushwork evoke the joy and happiness of the moment, capturing the essence of companionship and camaraderie. The concept of amusement and enjoyment is further emphasized by the various musical instruments scattered throughout the scene, adding to the lively and festive mood. This genre scene, a popular subject during the Dutch Golden Age, showcases the artistic prowess of Jan van Bijlert, a prominent Dutch painter of the 17th century. The painting's title, "Merry Company," perfectly encapsulates the joyful and carefree spirit of the individuals depicted, making it a beloved and cherished piece of European heritage art. Jan Harmensz van Bijlert, also known as Jan van Bijlert or Jan van Bylert, was a Dutch painter who specialized in genre scenes, portraits, and landscapes. His works are characterized by their lively brushwork, rich colors, and vivid depictions of everyday life in the Netherlands during the 17th century. "Merry Company" is just one of many examples of his ability to capture the essence of human emotion and the joy of life in his artwork.
