a painting in chiaroscuro full of shades and shades of orange, yellow and brown colors revealing flames escaping from houses, houses in ruins and a dense crowd gathered saving what can be saved while other characters try to escape through windows etc.,
the theme is quite unusual and treated in the manner of a miniature.
the canvas was re-lined in the 19th century on a charming little fir tree key frame with a maker's mark marked: I.Peel, Liner, like a stamp.
the frame was changed at the same time, a sober frame in wood and gilded stucco.
a charming Flemish painting with a very beautiful composition.
dimensions: 22 cm long and 31 cm with the frame and 17 cm high and 26 cm with the frame.
