Martinus Josephus Geeraerts (manner of)
Playing Putti

c. 1740-1760 Zu sehen in Saal 2

This scene of five playing putti is mounted above the door in the panelling, where a painting like this originally belonged. The over-door panel is a grisaille; a scene painted only in shades of grey to give the impression of being a marble relief. The Antwerp painter Geeraerts specialised in this type of marble imitation.
