"Frohliche Gesellschaft mit einem Banketje" (English: "Merry Company with a Banquet") is a 17th-century painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Pieter Jacobsz Codde. Known for his genre scenes and portraits, Codde created this work during a period in Dutch art where scenes of everyday life and merriment were popular among patrons and collectors. The painting is a quintessential example of the "merry company" genre, which typically depicts groups of elegantly dressed men and women enjoying music, dance, food, and drink.

The artwork captures a moment of conviviality and indulgence, with figures engaged in conversation and laughter, showcasing Codde's skill in rendering the textures of luxurious fabrics and the interplay of light and shadow. The composition is carefully constructed to draw the viewer's eye across the various interactions and details within the scene, from the sumptuous spread on the table to the expressions and gestures of the participants.

Pieter Codde, born in Amsterdam in 1599 and active until his death in 1678, was a contemporary of other genre painters such as Dirck Hals and Willem Duyster. His works are characterized by their smaller scale, refined brushwork, and often, a sense of intimacy and immediacy. "Frohliche Gesellschaft mit einem Banketje" not only reflects the societal and cultural norms of the Dutch Republic's prosperous burgher class but also serves as a testament to Codde's artistic prowess and his contribution to the genre painting tradition of his time.

The painting is an important piece within Codde's oeuvre and Dutch Golden Age art, offering insights into the social customs and artistic tastes of the period. It remains a subject of interest for art historians and enthusiasts who seek to understand the nuances of 17th-century Dutch genre paintings and the broader context of European art history.
