"Smokers in an Interior" (1643) is a genre painting by the French artist Louis Le Nain, who, along with his brothers Antoine and Mathieu, is known for his depictions of peasant life. The painting is a prime example of the Le Nain brothers' contribution to the genre of scenes of everyday life during the 17th century in France. Measuring 46 cm by 37 cm, it is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

The artwork portrays a group of men engaged in the act of smoking within the confines of a dimly lit interior, which is thought to be a tavern or a private home. The composition is notable for its realistic portrayal of the figures and the somber, restrained use of color, which was characteristic of the Le Nain brothers' style. The figures are depicted with a sense of dignity and solemnity, which is often interpreted as a sympathetic look at the lives of the common people.

"Smokers in an Interior" is significant for its social and cultural representation of the period. The painting provides insight into the customs and social habits of 17th-century French society, particularly in relation to the pastime of smoking, which was a relatively new practice in Europe at the time. The work is also an example of the naturalistic approach to genre painting that the Le Nains were known for, setting them apart from the more idealized and romanticized depictions of peasant life by other artists of the era.

The painting's provenance and critical reception over the years have contributed to its status as an important work in the oeuvre of Louis Le Nain and the study of French Baroque art. It has been the subject of scholarly analysis, which often focuses on the Le Nains' unique blend of realism and empathy, as well as the technical mastery evident in their treatment of light and texture. "Smokers in an Interior" remains a valuable piece for understanding the social dynamics and artistic trends of 17th-century France.
