A painting of a 17th century Dutch domestic interior in which two women and two men are merrymaking at table with libations and smoking. The house is very sparsely furnished, with high beamed ceiling and open leaded windows to the left side of the painting. A door opens to other regions of the house, and then another door and an armoire is visible in the distance. The most striking element of the scene is the bright red long skirt at the center, worn by a seated woman holding a wine glass.

Pieter de Hooch.
A Dutch Courtyard, 1658-60.
Woman Drinking with Soldiers, 1658.
I knew he was formulaic but I had not realized until today how closely his compositions rhymed sometimes. Look at that! The last two are almost identical, but for the missing soldier in what is thought to be the more recent and inferior copy.
