The Goldfinch d.1654 by Carel Fabritius
Tumblr media
📍Mauritshuis, The Hague, Netherlands
Carel Fabritius was a Dutch painter who was a pupil of Rembrandt and a member of the Delft School. The Delft School is a category of the Dutch Golden Age era movement. Best known for its paintings of domestic life, households, church interiors, courtyards and squares of Delft; in which Fabritius was an originator.
The painting has an incredible history. In 2003, conservators for the first time examined the work under a CT scan. They found small indentations on the painting which can only have been formed whilst not fully dry. It is possible that damage was caused by the Delft explosion, which killed Fabritius, destroyed much of his work and damaged much of the city. The painting shows a life-sized European goldfinch, a blue container enclosed by two wooden rings in which the goldfinch is perched on the upper ring. A trompe-l'oeil painting, which uses artistic techniques to create the illusion that the depicted object exists in three dimensions is highlighted by the white background, mimicking a plastered wall. The background is atypical of Dutch painters, with a white washed wall flooded in light, engulfing the goldfinch.
The goldfinch frequently appears in paintings not only because of its colourful appearance but also symbolically. Goldfinches were common pets at the time and had a reputation as a bringer of good health. Pliny associated the goldfinch with fertility, with the presence of a giant goldfinch next to a naked couple in The Garden of Earthly Delights, by fellow Dutch artist Bosch perhaps refers to this belief. Almost 500 Renaissance paintings feature the bird, as a symbol of Christian redemption and the Passion of Jesus. With the habit of feeding on the seeds of spiky thistles, paired with its red cheeked complexion, the goldfinch foretells the crufixion of Jesus, where the bird became splattered with blood attempting to remove the Crown of Thorns.
