Couwenbergh, a notable figure in the Dutch Golden Age of painting, is known for his genre scenes as well as his biblical and mythological depictions. This painting showcases his ability to create a sense depth and space with intricate detailing and precise light-shadow contrasts, which bear the influence of his mentor, Gerard van Honthorst.
