The Concert, c1626
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Hendrick ter Brugghen is a captivating snapshot of the vibrant and lively atmosphere of 17th-century Holland. This baroque masterpiece showcases a trio of flamboyantly dressed musicians illuminated solely by the warm glow of candlelight. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings forth a rich tapestry of colors, textures, and emotions. The composition exudes an air of enjoyment and pleasure as each musician passionately plays their instrument. A young girl with rosy cheeks delicately handles a flute while her male counterpart skillfully strums his lute. Their music fills the room, casting enchanting shadows on the walls. The opulent attire worn by these musicians adds to the visual spectacle - intricate dresses adorned with ruffles and lace for women, and extravagant hats for men. In this painting, art seamlessly intertwines with entertainment as it captures not only musical talent but also fashion trends prevalent during that era. Adding to the allure are clusters of succulent grapes placed strategically in the foreground. Symbolizing abundance and indulgence, they serve as a reminder that life's pleasures can be found even amidst artistic pursuits. "The Concert" transports us back in time to experience both auditory delight and visual splendor within one frame. As we gaze upon this oil painting from the collection of National Gallery London, we become witnesses to an unforgettable moment frozen in history – where music harmonizes with artistry under flickering candlelight.
