Toutes les enchères / Autres / Frans Francken II (1581-1642), Circle of - Dario el Grande y los Persas
Title: Darius the Great and the Persians School: Flemish (17th century) Author: Attributed to the circle of Frans Francken II Style: Baroque history painting Technique: Oil on copper Interesting composition with a historical and courtly subject, attributed to Frans Francken I, in which a ceremonial scene set in the Persian world is depicted. The work shows a sovereign enthroned under a rich canopy, surrounded by soldiers, courtiers and female figures, while several characters approach bearing offerings and valuable metal objects worked with care. In the background an urban scene unfolds with fortified architecture and groups of figures that broaden the visual narrative, giving the overall composition depth and dynamism. The painting presents a careful scenic organization, very typical of Flemish Baroque, where the accumulation of characters, the theatricality of gesture and the taste for detail build an image of great narrative richness. The refinement in the representation of costumes, the symbols of power, the metal vessels placed in the foreground and the contrast between the palace area in shadow and the bright, open background are especially striking. All of this points to an artistic sensibility concerned with history, scenography and meticulous decoration. Frans Francken I was a Flemish painter active between the 16th and 17th centuries, belonging to a distinguished dynasty of Antwerp artists. His output and that of his family circle contributed to the development of history and cabinet painting in Flanders, influencing later generations with a taste for complex narrative compositions, anecdotal richness and technical detail. The work is presented framed by a carved and gilded wooden frame, wide-profile, decorated with vegetal motifs and classical-inspired volutes. Its gilded finish enhances the solemn and ornamental character of the composition, integrating harmoniously with the historicist aesthetic of the whole.
