‘Jan Steen: Sacred and Profane’ at the National Gallery of Ireland marks the 400th anniversary of the 17th-century artist’s birth. Steen captured the variety and humour of human nature and his work extends beyond the genre scenes for which he is best known. The gallery’s paintings The Village School and The Marriage Feast at Cana exemplify his range. These works are joined by international loans, showcasing Steen’s narrative mastery of the variety of human life.
