Descoperă Metropolitan Museum of Art din NYC! O călătorie de 5000 de ani prin artă, de la artefacte egiptene la picturi impresioniste. Un muzeu global ce inspiră și fascinează!
This painting is not a portrait of an identifiable sitter, but rather a character study of a man Sweerts recruited as a professional model. Clutching a tankard and glass, with a pipe and loose tobacco before him, the man embodies the pleasures of the senses. At the same time, his thoughtful and individual expression makes him transcend any mere type or moralizing lesson.
