"Kermesse Flamande" is a notable work by Peeter Baltens, also known as Pieter Balten or Peter Baltens (1527–1584), a Flemish Renaissance painter, printmaker, and draftsman known for his genre scenes and landscapes. The painting depicts a Flemish kermesse, a traditional festival common in the Southern Netherlands, which combines a religious feast with a public fair and various festivities. Baltens' work is characterized by its lively representation of these local customs and the detailed portrayal of peasant life.

The painting is a vibrant tableau of the merriment and revelry associated with these communal gatherings. It typically features a multitude of figures engaging in dance, music, and games, with a keen eye for the humorous and sometimes moralistic aspects of peasant behavior. Baltens, who was influenced by Pieter Bruegel the Elder, often imbued his works with a similar sense of energy and a critical, yet empathetic observation of rural life.

"Kermesse Flamande" is significant for its historical depiction of 16th-century Flemish culture and society. The work serves as an important example of genre painting from this period, offering insights into the customs and daily life of the time. Baltens' attention to detail and his ability to capture the dynamic atmosphere of the kermesse make this painting a valuable piece of cultural heritage.

As an artist, Peeter Baltens was active in Antwerp, a center of artistic production during the Northern Renaissance. His contributions to the genre of peasant scenes helped to establish a tradition that would be continued by subsequent generations of Flemish artists. "Kermesse Flamande" stands as a testament to Baltens' skill in rendering the spirit of Flemish folk festivities and his place within the broader context of Renaissance art in the Low Countries.
