Interior of a Peasant House 1640

Isaac van Ostade’s *Interior of a Peasant House* (1640), currently located in the Budapest Museum of Fine Arts, depicts a humble interior filled with everyday life. The dimly lit scene reveals a peasant couple sitting by a fire, a dog wandering in the foreground, and various tools and objects strewn about. Ostade’s signature attention to detail brings a sense of realism to this genre painting, capturing the simplicity and authenticity of rural life in 17th-century Netherlands.
