Summary

Oil painting on panel, The Garden of Eden, probably by Frederik Bouttats the elder (1590-1661), after Jan Brueghel the elder (Brussels 1568 – Antwerp 1625), or by Frederik Bouttats the Younger ([?] - Antwerp 1676). The scene shows a wooded landscape with birds and animals and a valley beyond on the left. Ducks swim on a pond in the left foreground and beside it a tree, whose trunk leans towards the left, occupies the centre foreground. Its branches are filled with a variety of birds, large and small. A stag with antlers, seen from behind, stands in front of the tree. A pair of cheetah are fighting on the right and behind them stands a white horse with a long mane with another brown horse, partly seen, behind it. To their left is a deer, a boar and two parrots sitting in a tree on the far right. In the central distance are the figures of Adam and Eve shown at the moment of the Tempatation.

Provenance

Probably in Stourhead house by 1800 as 'The Creation by Roland Savery'. Given to the National Trust along with the house, its grounds, and the rest of contents by Sir Henry Hugh Arthur Hoare, 6th Bt (1865 – 1947) in 1946.
