"Before Supper" is an oil painting by the Dutch artist David Adolf Constant Artz (1837–1890), who was associated with the Hague School of painters. The work is characteristic of Artz's genre scenes, which often depict intimate family moments and everyday life in the 19th century. "Before Supper" captures a tranquil domestic scene, likely set in a Dutch interior, where figures are engaged in quiet preparation for the evening meal.

Artz's attention to detail and his ability to convey the textures of fabrics and the warmth of the interior setting are evident in this work. The painting's composition typically reflects the artist's skill in using light to create mood, a hallmark of the Hague School artists, who were influenced by the 17th-century Dutch masters. The figures in "Before Supper" are rendered with empathy and a sense of dignity, which is a testament to Artz's focus on the beauty of the ordinary and his respect for his subjects.

The exact date of creation for "Before Supper" is not well-documented, which is not uncommon for works of this period. Artz's paintings are held in various public and private collections, and they continue to be appreciated for their contribution to the Dutch realist tradition in art. "Before Supper" exemplifies the artist's dedication to capturing the serene and contemplative moments of daily life, and it remains an important piece for understanding the social and cultural context of the Netherlands in the late 19th century.

As a genre painter, Artz's work provides insight into the customs and lifestyles of the time, making "Before Supper" not only a work of aesthetic significance but also of historical value. The painting invites viewers to consider the universal themes of family, domesticity, and the simple pleasures of home life, which transcend the specific period in which Artz lived and worked.
