The Flemish Baroque painter David Teniers (1610-1690) was an extremely versatile artist who tried in almost every possible genre. He modernized many genres such as still life, history, landscape and portrait painting. Since his father David Teniers was also a well-known painter, he is often referred to as David Teniers the Younger (dJ). His father was also his first teacher and thus influenced his work significantly. At 16, he began teaching him. Together they worked on the projects of the father. Teniers the Elder had more financial difficulties and had to go to prison several times. David Teniers dJ had to financially support the family during this time by making and selling copies of old masters.
Other important figures in training David Teniers and influencers in his later style were his compatriots Peter Paul Rubens and Adriaen Brouwer. He married in 1637 finally Rubens foster daughter Anna Brueghel. Her own deceased father was the famous painter Jan Brueghel the Elder. With this marriage, Teniers not only consolidated his relationship with Rubens, who was the best man at the marriage ceremony, but also secured a place in the elite circles of the artist scene. For although many of Tenier's works represented the common people, such as peasants, soldiers, or drinking-scene scenes, he was attracted to the higher society and the nobility. Although he never received a title of nobility, but at least he was able to rise in 1651 in Brussels court painter in.
As a court painter, he was also the curator of the comprehensive art collection of Archduke Leopold Wilhelm. During this time he created the "Theatrum pictorium", the first illustrated catalog of a collection of paintings. Teniers was a prolific artist. He is said to have created a total of about 2000 works of art, of which many hundreds have survived today. Of these, around 800 tavern, alchemists or peasant scenes are represented, such as "Country Wedding", "The Alchemist" or "Smoker in the Tavern". In addition to these genre pictures, a large part of his pictures, about 200 motifs, deals with "The temptations of St. Anthony". Next to Peter Paul Rubens, Anthonius Van Dyck and Jacob Jordaens, Teniers the Younger is considered one of the most important Flemish painters of the 17th century.
