EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and lively painting by Willem Pietersz Buytewech captures a "Happy company" in the 17th century Dutch art style. Painted around 1620, this oil on canvas artwork is currently housed in the Museum of Fine Arts Rotterdam in the Netherlands. The scene depicts a group of elegantly dressed men and women engaged in various activities, creating an atmosphere of joy and conviviality. The subjects are engrossed in conversation, enjoying each other's company around a table adorned with food and drink. A fireplace crackles nearby, adding warmth to the scene. The attention to detail is remarkable, from the intricate costumes worn by the figures to their fashionable footwear and hats. Tobacco smoke fills the air as some individuals indulge in smoking pipes while others savor strawberries or partake in alcoholic beverages. Buytewech's skillful brushwork brings life to every element within this domestic setting. The rich colors and textures create a sense of opulence that was characteristic of Flemish art during this period. This print captured by Leonard de Selva beautifully showcases Buytewech's masterpiece, allowing viewers to appreciate its beauty even outside the walls of the museum. It serves as a reminder that throughout history, people have sought companionship, leisurely conversations, good food, and fine art – elements that continue to bring happiness today.
