Anna Maria Janssens
(Antwerp? before 1620 - after 1668?)
A garland of flowers around a medaillon with the Holy Family and a music making angel, on top and in the corners God the Father and the Four Evangelists en grisaille,
signed lower right: Anna Jans,
oil on panel, 78 x 59 cm, framed
Provenance:
Private collection, South Germany
We are grateful to Fred Meijer for confirming the attribution of the present painting to Anna Maria Janssens. She most likely executed the medaillon. Fred Meijer attributes the surrounding motifs to Frans Francken II and the flowers to a follower of Jan Brueghel I and Jan Brueghel II.
Anna Maria Janssens was Abraham Janssens’s daughter. She married the similarly accomplished still-life painter, Jan Brueghel II, with whom she had eleven children. Janssens had the reputation of being a gifted painter of flower still lifes in the manner of her husband, but only one signed painting is known. Anna Maria Janssens belonged to the Antwerp guild of Saint Luke between 1645/46 and 1667/68.
