拍品專文

In 1967, Professor Jaffé noted that the traditional title, the Triumph of Silenus, was erroneous. A version of the composition owned by Mrs Paul Parmentier at Knocke in 1905, accepted as autograph by M. Rooses (M. Rooses, Jacob Jordaens, His Life and Work, London and New York, 1908, illustrated p. 233), is regarded by d'Hulst as a studio work: other apparently inferior variants are at Montauban and Pommersfelden.
