Description from the seller
The man with a glass and a pipe by candlelight
Antique historical oil painting after the notable Dutch painter
Godfried van Schalcken from the 18th century
(possibly painted by his pupil from the artist's circle of that time)
Godfried Schalcken was a student of Rembrandt's pupil
Samuel van Hoogstraten.
Godefridus Schalcken or Godfried Schalcken (* 1643 in Made near Breda; † 16 November 1706 in The Hague).

In the tradition of Leiden fine painting, he created highly illusionistic, meticulously painted portraits, genre paintings, biblical and mythological histories, occasionally also still lifes and landscapes with figures. His trademark was the depiction of special lighting effects, especially candlelight.
