# Peasant Grimacing [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [CRAESBEECK, Josse van]() - Date: 1601-1650 - Technique: Oil on panel, 15 x 11 cm ## Commentary This small painting shows a peasant grimacing with his arm in a sling. Craesbeeck's chief concern here is the accurate rendering of a face distorted by a grimace which is a result of his broken arm, supported here in a dingy, handmade sling. ## Related artworks - [Company of Peasants in a Tavern]() - [Death is Violent and Fast]() - [Drunkard]() - [Drunken Singers Seated around a Table in a Tavern]() - [Guardroom Interior]() - [Interior of an Inn]() - [Officer Reading a Letter]() - [Peasants in front of a Village Inn]() - [Tavern Scene]() - [The Lute Concert]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
