Willem van Herp - Old Master Paintings

(Antwerp circa 1614–1677) and Studio
A larder with two figures,
oil on canvas, 180 x 248 cm, framed

Provenance:
Chevalier le Maistre d’Anstaing, Château des Carrières, Soignies;
Noble collection, Belgium

Literature:
E. Greindl, Les Peintres Flamands de Nature Morte au XVIIe Siecle, Brussels, 1960, p. 376, no. 117 (as Frans Snyders);
H. Robels, Frans Snyders, Munich 1989, p. 433, no. A36 II

The present work is a variant of a painting in the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Valenciennes, which has been published by Hella Robels in her monograph on Frans Snyders as by Paul de Vos.

Fred Meijer attributes the figures to Willem van Herp and he further states that it cannot be totally excluded that the still life is also from the artist’s hand (written communication, 2005).
