Caption

Tavern Interior, 1661. In this tavern scene Van Ostade depicted some of the leisure activities of the humblest social classes such as board games, drinking and smoking. The backgammon board on the table in the background is the focus of interest of the three figures in the window, along with their tobacco and drink, while the seated figure in the foreground is also depicted smoking.
