EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to a lively inn interior filled with a group of peasants indulging in their favorite pastimes. Adriaen Brouwer masterfully captures the essence of peasant life during the 17th century. As we gaze upon the scene, our eyes are immediately drawn to the center of attention – a round table where farmers gather together for drinks, smoke, and song. The atmosphere is jovial and carefree as laughter fills the air. On one side of the table, a farmer sits inside a barrel while enjoying his pipe, adding an element of whimsy to the composition. However, it is impossible not to notice what unfolds in the foreground. A drunk peasant woman has succumbed to her intoxication and fallen into slumber. Beside her stands a crying child desperately tugging at her arm, perhaps seeking comfort or attention amidst all the revelry. This poignant juxtaposition serves as a reminder that even amid merriment, life's struggles persist. Brouwer's skillful use of oil paint brings depth and texture to every detail within this small yet impactful painting measuring only 19.5 cm by 26.5 cm on panel canvas. The warm hues and soft lighting create an inviting ambiance that draws us further into this intimate gathering. This remarkable work invites contemplation about human nature - our need for camaraderie and escape from daily hardships but also reminds us of those left behind or forgotten amidst our own
