The Gallant Innkeeper
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Jan Havicksz. Steen is a captivating oil painting that transports us back to the lively atmosphere of an inn in 17th century Holland. This charming print captures a moment filled with mirth, music, and romance. In the foreground, we see a jovial innkeeper standing proudly behind his bar, surrounded by patrons enjoying their drinks and engaging in animated conversations. The inn serves as a hub for social interaction, where people from all walks of life gather to unwind and share stories. The artist skillfully portrays the bustling scene with intricate details - from the musicians playing lively tunes on their instruments to couples engaged in flirtatious exchanges. One particular couple catches our attention; a dashing gentleman leans towards an elegant lady seated at her table, offering her a drink while making what seems like a proposal. Steen's mastery lies not only in capturing these fleeting moments but also infusing them with humor and warmth. The painting reminds us that life is full of unexpected encounters and possibilities – as one marriage ends (as suggested by "dun mariage vient lautre"), another may begin. This delightful artwork now resides at Musee des Beaux-Arts in Lille, France, where it continues to enchant visitors with its vibrant depiction of human connection amidst the backdrop of an inviting tavern setting.
