THOMAS WIJCK, MERRYMAKERS IN A TAVERN, PEN AND BROWN INK, BROWN WASH, HEIGHTENED WITH WHITE, INCISED OUTLINES
Dutch painter and draughtsman active in Haarlem, Thomas Wijck is known for his Italianate court and interior scenes (see Almsgiving, Phildelphia Museum of Art, inv. cat.611); he is also famous for his depictions of alchemists (see Alchemist in his Study, Rijksmuseum inv. A 489). The subject here is more specifically Dutch - a tavern scene. According to B. Schnackenburg, the drawing dates to the artist's youth, when he was influenced by Adriaen (1610-1685) and Isaac Van Ostade (1621-1649). At that time, he preferred genre scenes and scenes of country life. B. Schnackenburg considers the drawing to be a preparatory sketch for a painting now in private hands (op.cit.).
