"Vioolspeler in Venster" (English: "Violin Player in the Window") is a 17th-century oil painting by the Dutch artist Gerrit Dou, a pupil of Rembrandt and a leading figure of the Leiden School. This artwork exemplifies Dou's meticulous technique and his fascination with interior scenes illuminated by soft, diffused light. The painting depicts a young violinist, positioned in a window niche, engaging with the viewer as if offering a private concert. The use of chiaroscuro, a technique that contrasts light and shadow to achieve a sense of volume in modelling three-dimensional objects and figures, is evident and reflects the influence of Dou's mentor, Rembrandt.

The composition is notable for its attention to detail and texture, capturing the interplay of light on various surfaces, including the polished wood of the violin, the clear glass of the window, and the fine fabrics of the musician's attire. Dou's work often includes emblematic elements, and the presence of the violin in this painting may symbolize the harmony of life or the fleeting nature of pleasure.

"Vioolspeler in Venster" is considered an important work within Dou's oeuvre, showcasing his skill in creating intimate genre scenes that invite contemplation. The painting is also an example of the Dutch Golden Age's preoccupation with domesticity, craftsmanship, and the pleasures of music. As with many of Dou's paintings, this piece likely appealed to the tastes of the wealthy bourgeoisie in the Dutch Republic, who favored such finely executed and detailed works of art for their homes.
