One of the most popular painters of the Golden Age, known for his ironic and humorous view of the world. He is most appreciated for his comical portrayals of dilapidated households, quacks examining miniaturized girls, noisy open-air parties and pub scenes. However, Steen also painted genre pieces with a serious side, some highly original portraits and particularly interesting history pieces that vary widely in style and atmosphere, from the quiet and intimate to the large and melodramatic.
