Description

Man-eating fish - Jeroen Bosch Collection Figurine -  Parastone - 7 x 14 cm

The right panel of the triptych The Haywain depicts the gruesome hell. Under a bridge, over which the damned souls are heading toward their fate, a soul is being devoured by a fish-like creature. The snake curling around the legs refers to sinful lust.

THE CARRAGE OF HAY

Bosch shows how we mortals, sprung from the earthly paradise, are on our way to the gruesome hell through our dissolute life on earth. The closed shutters show a traveler who, despite temptations, continues on his way.

Hieronymus Bosch (c. 1450–1516), born Hieronymus van Aken in ’s-Hertogenbosch, was a South Dutch painter of the Northern Renaissance. Nicknamed den duvelmakere (“the creator of devils”), he became known for his satirical and fantastical scenes. Bosch was an innovator who transformed traditional motifs into imaginative new compositions, many of which still puzzle viewers with their mysterious meanings. Celebrated in his own time and even commissioned by the ducal court in Brussels, his life nevertheless remains only partly known.

Attributes: figurine that features a hybrid creature, with the body of a fish-like creature, including a pointed face and fins, but it has human legs in high-heeled boots. The human legs emerge from the fish's body, creating an unusual and provocative aesthetic. The figurine is mounted on a rounded, wooden base. Its overall posture is laid-back, with the fish-like creature leaning back, and two thin antennae-like appendages are attached to its head.
