Gerard Jozef Portielje

Gerard Jozef Portielje was a Belgian painter of genre scenes. He was born in Antwerp, the son of painter Jan Portielje. His younger brother, Edward, was also a painter. Portielje specialized in genre scenes in a variety of social settings, generally filled with people who might be described as "characters". They are often humorous (occasionally suggestive), and there is usually a sense that something is about to happen. The clothing and accessories point to the early nineteenth century, rather than his own times. He is particularly noted for his attention to fine detail. His paintings were usually priced according to the number of people they contained.
