Abstract

The authors study the original number of preparatory oil paintings (cartones) that Jacob Jordaens must have carried out on the subject of the Riding School. By examining these cartoons and the tapestries preserved from different series it is possible to approximate the compositions designed by Jordaens. The tapestries in the Alba collection, currently preserved in the Dueñas Palace in Seville are related to this series, which initially must have consisted of twelve panels. Furthermore, the unusual black lower border of the Alba tapestries permits them to be identified with three other tapestries now in foreing collections. This singular detail, along with the quality of execution of these tapestries, makes it possible to consider a provenance from a 17th century royal collection. In fact, the first documents about the series in seville are at the begining of 18th century.
