Frans Snyders or Frans Snijders (1579-1657) was a Flemish painter of animals, hunting scenes, market scenes and still lifes. He was one of the earliest specialist animaliers and he is credited with initiating a wide variety of new still-life and animal subjects in Antwerp. He was a regular collaborator with leading Antwerp painters such as Peter Paul Rubens, Anthony van Dyck and Jacob Jordaens.

For #InternationalBatAppreciationDay:
#LuckyBats spotted at the The Frick Pittsburgh’s Chinese Porcelains exhibition! 🦇
Porcelain vase with enamel decoration, China, Qing Dynasty, Qianlong Period (1723-1735), c. 1730.
#LuckyBats: The center medallion of 2 joined #bats encircled by 7 more is a #rebus, or visual pun - the Chinese word for bat is “fu,” a homophone for the word for "good fortune,” and “nine” is also a homophone for “long-lasting.” It was likely a wedding wish for a happy marriage.

I’ve been delighted to attend the IFA-NYU & Frick Museum Annual Symposium on the History of Art today. Only sad that it had to be virtual. I’m looking forward to attending at the new Frick auditorium next year.
It’s been an all day symposium so I’ve moved to different locations in my house for various presentations. Now: watching from bed. Lol.
