Groeningemuseum, 2

 Continuing our visit to the wonderful Groeningemuseum in Bruges...

Pieter Pourbus, Last Supper, 1548, Judas heading for the exit

Another Boschy, a Judgement, 1486, now said to be either a) by Bosch,
b) his workshop, or c) a collaboration between Bosch and his workshop;
come on...all those Team Raphael or Team Rubens paintings are just the
same; why not just say it's a Bosch?! 

The details are absolutely consistent with Garden of
Earthly Delights and other undisputed works

Wouldn't you love to have had a drink with Bosch?

Heaven was an option for some...paucitas salvandorum

But it was pretty boring

Monk and nun enjoying a little quality time in the hot tub?

Heaven for climate, Hell for company...

Peter Brueghels the Younger, The Sermon of St. John, early 17th;
as with his dad's "religious" paintings, you have to study long and
hard to find the religious bit, namely St. John; the emphasis was
always on the folk 

Antonio Claeissons, Mars, Surrounded by the Arts and Sciences,
Conquers Ignorance, early 17th; evidently the arts and sciences
couldn't do it on their own and Mars was called in for back-up

There is much in the Groenigemuseum beyond the
early Flemish stuff we like; here, Joseph-Benoit Suvee,
The Invention of the Art of Drawing, 1791

Pierre Paulus, The Fumes, 1930

Henri Eugene Le Sidaner, Boat on a Canal (Morning), 1900

Xavier de Cocke, View of Bruges, 1880

Paul Delvaus, Serenity, 1970
