"An Almond Seller at the 'Botermarkt' in Amsterdam by Candlelight" is a 19th-century painting by the Dutch-Belgian artist Petrus van Schendel (1806–1870), known for his mastery in depicting nocturnal scenes illuminated by candlelight or lamplight. This work is a fine example of his "night market" theme, where he often portrayed vendors and shoppers in the soft, warm glow of artificial light against the backdrop of the evening.

The painting captures a moment of everyday life in the 'Botermarkt' (Butter Market), which was a bustling commercial center in Amsterdam during the 19th century. The central figure of the almond seller is depicted with a keen attention to detail, from the texture of the almonds to the expression of concentration on the vendor's face. The flickering candlelight not only highlights the subject but also casts shadows and creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the nocturnal setting.

Van Schendel's technique of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, is evident in this work, showcasing his ability to manipulate light to create a realistic and inviting scene. The painting not only serves as a testament to van Schendel's artistic skill but also provides historical insight into the social and commercial life of Amsterdam in the 19th century.

As a notable piece within van Schendel's oeuvre, "An Almond Seller at the 'Botermarkt' in Amsterdam by Candlelight" is a significant contribution to the genre of night market paintings and continues to be appreciated for its technical prowess and its evocative portrayal of a bygone era.
