EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite oil on canvas painting by the Flemish artist Erasmus de Bie captures the lively and festive atmosphere of Carnival celebrations on the Meir in Antwerp during the year 1670. The Meir, a prominent street in the city, is adorned with an array of elaborate and imaginative floats, each one more extravagant than the next. The floats, which are pulled by horses or oxen, are intricately decorated with colorful fabrics, flowers, and various other ornaments. The figures depicted on the floats, dressed in elaborate costumes and masks, add to the whimsical and playful spirit of the occasion. The painting masterfully conveys the joy and merriment of the Shrove Tuesday festivities, which were an important tradition in Flanders during the Baroque period. The painting is now part of the esteemed collection of the Musee de Flandre in Cassel, and serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Antwerp during the 17th century. Erasmus de Bie, a talented artist of the time, expertly captures the essence of the Carnival celebrations, making this painting a true gem of Flemish genre painting.
