Judith Jans Leyster, a Dutch portrait painter of the Golden Age, was the first woman in the ranks of the Harlem Guild of St. Luke's. She painted still lifes, lively portraits, and genre scenes of taverns with drunks and people having fun. Several of her canvases depict women at home, which was a novelty for painting in the 1620s and 1630s.
