Lacemaking By Candlelight is a notable painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Godfried Schalcken. Known for his mastery in capturing the effects of light and shadow, Schalcken's work often depicted intimate scenes illuminated by candlelight, which became a hallmark of his style. This particular painting, dating from the late 17th century, showcases a young woman engaged in the delicate and meticulous craft of lacemaking, a common domestic activity during that period.

The artwork is remarkable for its detailed portrayal of the lacemaker, whose focused expression under the soft glow of candlelight emphasizes both her concentration and the intricate nature of her task. Schalcken's use of chiaroscuro, a technique that contrasts light and dark shades, enhances the three-dimensionality of the figure and highlights the texture of the lace and the softness of the light.

Lacemaking By Candlelight not only reflects Schalcken's technical skill but also provides insight into the socio-cultural context of the time, illustrating the quiet yet essential domestic roles that women often held. The painting is a significant example of Schalcken's contributions to Dutch genre painting and his exceptional ability to manipulate light to capture the subtleties of human emotion and daily life.
