The Flea-Catcher (Boy with his Dog)
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting that transports us back to the 17th century. In this intimate scene, we witness a young boy engrossed in the task of flea-catching, accompanied by his loyal canine companion. Painted by either Borch or Terborch, Gerard ter, this masterpiece measures 34.4x27.1 cm and currently resides in the Alte Pinakothek in Munich, Germany. The composition exudes rustic charm as it captures a moment of everyday life during that era. The boy sits comfortably on a wooden chair within an interior setting adorned with intriguing details such as an inkwell and notebook nearby. His hat rests casually on the table beside him while he meticulously attends to his dog's grooming needs. What makes this artwork particularly fascinating is the possibility that the subject could be none other than the artist's younger brother—an endearing touch that adds depth to our understanding of their relationship. Through skillful brushwork and delicate use of light and shadow, Borch or Terborch expertly conveys not only the physical act of de-fleaing but also evokes emotions of tenderness and companionship between human and animal. As we gaze upon "The Flea-Catcher (Boy with his Dog)" we are reminded of how art has always had the power to capture ordinary moments and transform them into timeless treasures for generations to come.
