Adriaen van Ostade - Resting travellers


      An elderly peasant and a somewhat younger man who has been hunting – his game bag and gun lie next to him – are seated with a beer jug or a pipe in the garden of an inn. After 1670 Adriaen van Ostade painted very few interiors; scenes set in the open air gained the upper hand. These paintings contain little in the way of a moralizing message; instead, they extol unhurried, simple country life.
