"La Luthiste et le Jeune Garçon Jouant avec un Chien" (The Lute Player and the Young Boy Playing with a Dog) is a 17th-century painting by Dutch Golden Age artist Jacob Ochtervelt. This work exemplifies Ochtervelt's skill in capturing domestic scenes with a sense of intimacy and refined elegance, which are characteristic of his oeuvre. The painting portrays a young woman playing the lute, an instrument often associated with love and courtship in Dutch genre painting, while a young boy engages playfully with a dog, adding a lively dynamic to the scene.

Ochtervelt was renowned for his ability to depict the textures of luxurious fabrics and the play of light on interior surfaces, and "La Luthiste et le Jeune Garçon Jouant avec un Chien" is no exception. The artist's use of color and light not only enhances the realism of the scene but also serves to draw the viewer's attention to the social interactions and the subtle narrative unfolding within the domestic setting.

The painting is a fine example of Ochtervelt's work during the period when he was influenced by the likes of Gabriel Metsu and Pieter de Hooch, who were also known for their genre scenes set in well-to-do households. Ochtervelt's paintings often reflect the tastes and aspirations of the burgeoning middle class in the Dutch Republic, and this piece may be interpreted as a reflection on leisure and the cultured lifestyle enjoyed by the mercantile elite of the time.

While the exact date of creation is not always clear for Ochtervelt's works, "La Luthiste et le Jeune Garçon Jouant avec un Chien" is typically dated to the mid-1660s, a period during which the artist produced some of his most accomplished works. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a valuable document of social history, offering insights into the private lives and domestic interiors of 17th-century Dutch society.
