Flemish school: A pipe smoker in an interior, oil on panel, 17th C.

Frame: 47 x 39 cm

The reverse with an old (collection?) label. The work is very close to the oeuvre of the Dutch painter Pieter Verelst (1618-1678), who started his career as an apprentice in the guild of Dordrecht, later became master of the guild in The Hague and was also active in Amsterdam and Hulst, where he was probably also active as a brewer.
