EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the lively atmosphere of a Flemish Kermis, a traditional fair held in the Netherlands during the 16th century. Painted by Pieter Balten around 1570, this oil on panel artwork measures 112x157 cm and is housed in the prestigious Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The scene depicted showcases festivity and merriment as people gather at a marketplace adorned with stalls and festivities. At the center of attention is a performance of the farce "Een cluyte van Plaeyerwater" which tells the comical tale of a man discovering his wife's infidelity with a clergyman. The play unfolds amidst an array of peasants, villagers, and baroque architecture. Adding to the vibrant ambiance is a religious procession passing by an inn, carrying the statue of a saint. This juxtaposition between secular entertainment and religious devotion highlights both aspects that were integral to daily life during this period. Balten masterfully captures every detail - from bustling crowds enjoying food and drink to picturesque landscapes surrounding Antwerp. The painting reflects elements typical of Northern Renaissance art while showcasing Balten's skillful execution. Through this artwork, we are transported back in time to experience not only the joyous celebration but also gain insight into social dynamics, theatrical traditions, and religious practices prevalent during this era in Flanders. It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation for those interested in exploring Dutch culture from centuries past.
