Peter Paul Rubens

Drunken Silenus

Netherlands (1616)

Oil on wood, 212 x 214.5 cm.

Alte Pinakothek, Munich.

I think we all need to take a moment to appreciate just how INCREDIBLY upset this painting and Ruben’s apparent love for it have made the curator at wga.hu:

In Greek mythology Silenus is a rural god, one of the retinue of Bacchus, a gay, fat old drunkard who was yet wise and had the gift of prophecy.

In Rubens’ painting he is shown drunkenly tottering, his belly swollen with meat and drink, and supported by a disparate collection of dotards, drunkards, blacks, children and young women. The careless inebriation of this bacchanal is expressed by a thicker touch that conveys the unwieldy weight of the drinkers’ gait.

The composition was originally conceived with half-length figures, but was later enlarged by Rubens himself. The painting hung in Rubens’ house.

Ha ha ha ha ha…my goodness. There is only a single Black man in this painting, but perhaps the incredible force with which he is pinching Silenus’s “gay, fat old drunk[ard]” ass* is enough to chagrin this curator into thinking there must be somehow more than one?

Apparently the thought of Rubens staring at this piece and smiling every morning while eating his breakfast sausage was just too much for some people.

As you may have noticed by now, Rubens adored drawing and painting Black people and included them in many, many of his paintings, as well as having done studies, portraits, sketches, and other works of art used for his workshop and apprentices. Many of his works he kept for himself in his personal collection.

I really think Jonas should kiss that old priest gently and lovingly like he’s the most important thing in the world.

Good old music to lighten the mood

(Miles has a rather... intense taste in music...

Yes, Eddie is dead. )

The song:

What if I fancasted Jacob Anderson as Arthur lester, and I fancasted my version of faroe as Bailey bass .

Like.......

I could see this man as experiencing the horrors™ and having a weirdly close relationship with the voice in his head
