"An Interior with Peasants Drinking and Smoking" is a 17th-century oil painting by Dutch Golden Age artist Jan Miense Molenaer. This genre painting, typical of Molenaer's oeuvre, depicts a lively scene inside a tavern or a domestic interior where a group of peasants are engaged in merrymaking. The artwork is characterized by its detailed portrayal of the figures' expressions and the vivid depiction of their rustic surroundings, which reflects the artist's interest in the daily life and customs of the common folk.

Molenaer, who was born in Haarlem in 1610 and died in 1668, was known for his genre scenes, portraits, and historical paintings. He often painted scenes of musicians, card players, and peasants in taverns, which were popular subjects in Dutch genre painting during the period. His work is noted for its humor, lively characters, and the use of chiaroscuro to enhance the narrative quality of the scenes.

"An Interior with Peasants Drinking and Smoking" exemplifies Molenaer's skill in capturing the convivial atmosphere of peasant life, with an emphasis on the social interactions and leisure activities of the lower classes. The painting's composition, use of light, and color palette are indicative of the influence of other contemporary Dutch artists, such as his brother-in-law Frans Hals, and the broader trends in Dutch painting at the time.

The painting is significant for its contribution to the genre painting tradition in the Dutch Golden Age, offering insights into the cultural and social history of the period.
