COMMENTARY
UNDERLINED TERMS ARE DEFINED IN THE GLOSSARY.
The painting shows an interior with an old man with a pipe and a flagon seated at a table, other figures smoking by a fireplace beyond.
This painting is known in several old copies, some perhaps produced in Teniers' own studio. The present work is now known to be the signed original - the large number of replicas testament to both its immediate and enduring popularity as a quiet but powerful image.
