David The Younger Teniers Biography
(b antwerp, 15 dec 1610; d brussels, 25 april 1690). son of (1) david teniers i. he became a master of the antwerp guild of st luke in 1632–3 after an apprenticeship to his father, with whom he also collaborated. in 1637 he married anna, the daughter and heiress of jan breughel i. from the outset teniers the younger was an extremely productive painter, thanks to his good relationship with antwerp art dealers. during the 1630s he produced small-format religious scenes on commission for chrysostoom van immerseel, who supplied the spanish market. however, it was teniers’s genre pieces that were greatly prized by the antwerp dealers and made him famous. teniers quickly became one of antwerp’s pace-setting and most successful painters, which probably accounts for his assumption of functions that carried a degree of social prominence, such as the office of master of the chapel of the holy sacrament in the st jacobskerk between 1637 and 1639, and dean of the guild of st luke in 1644–5. he also received such prestigious commissions as the large group portrait of the arquebusiers’ company (1643; st petersburg, hermitage). during this same antwerp period he also executed commissions for antonine triest (1576–1657), bishop of bruges, one of the most prominent patrons of the arts in the southern netherlands. by 1647 teniers was working for archduke leopold william, governor of the southern netherlands from 1646, and in 1651 he became the archduke’s court painter. he consequently moved from antwerp to the court at brussels, and in 1656 he bought a building near the archducal palace and had it rebuilt as a spacious and handsome house- cum -studio.
