A two-minute test

Jordaens or Zurbarán?

ArtStudy players mixed these two up 5 times in the last 90 days. One clue is usually all it takes.

A painting by Jacob Jordaens
Jacob Jordaens

Jordaens paints Flemish appetite — crowded, laughing feasts pressed close to the picture plane, ruddy fleshy bodies, proverbs turned into parties.

A painting by Francisco de Zurbarán
Francisco de Zurbarán

Zurbarán is austere and still — single monks or saints lit starkly against dark voids, with almost tangible white drapery.

Can you tell them apart?

One clue to notice, the two side by side, then three paintings you haven’t seen. No sign-up.
