The Infante Isabella shoots the jay of the Grand Serment with a crossbow in the Sablon in Brussels, May 15th 1615 is a 1650 oil by Antoon Sallaert, a Flemish Baroque painting work, held at Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
The painting depicts a lively scene of people gathered in a square, with a large church in the background. In the foreground, a group of men are shown in various poses, some standing and others sitting on the ground. The atmosphere appears to be one of celebration or festivity. A closer look reveals a sense of movement and energy among the figures, with some of them seemingly engaged in conversation or activity. The artist's use of color and composition adds to the overall sense of dynamism in the scene. The Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium holds this painting, which is a great place to explore more of Antoon Sallaert's work.
